The Fuhrer (Hitler) spent his downfall in his secret bunker. Advance units of the Red Army had smashed through the German defenses in Berlin and were only a few miles away from the bunker. Hitler was informed there was perhaps a day or two left before the Russians arrived at his doorstep (Website 2). Many of his SS officers tried to convince him to leave but he refused. He didn't wanted to be taken alive or dead by his enemies, in specific the Russians. He gave permission to people who wanted to leave. Many did but others stayed and took their because without the Fuhrer they don't want to live. There is a movie called "Downfall" that talks all about Hitler's downfall. Hitler finally acknowledges that the war is lost, but insists that he will remain in Berlin and commit suicide (Website 3). He stays in his bunker for three weeks until he finally commits suicide. Hitler knew he was defeated but he was stubborn. He didn't want a repeat of World War I, so he chose to never surrender. He wanted to make everyone pay for the blame the Germans took. Even though he already committed suicide, many stayed loyal and wanted to carry out his plans.The last few hours of Hitler's own life had their own macabre quality. With Germany lying in ruins after six devastating years of war, and with defeat imminent, the Nazi dictator decided to take his own life. But before doing so, he wanted to thank one of the few people who'd remained completely loyal to him until the very end (Website 1). The Russians attacked Berlin near Hitler's bunker. "Pushing the Germans out of western Europe was only achieved by a massive British, French, American and Soviet counter-offensive, launched on June 6th 1944 (‘D-Day’). After one of the largest military build-ups in history, Allied troops were ferried across the English Channel, where they stormed the heavily-fortified beaches of Nazi-occupied France. Despite heavy losses, the Allies breached the German defences and began to pour into Europe. In the east, two years of Operation Barbarossa had proved an unmitigated disaster, costing Germany more than a million men. By the end of 1944, German forces were depleted, divided and in retreat across Europe. The defeat of Nazi Germany was not only inevitable, it was also imminent. " (Website unknown).
