Goebbels smokes Hitler??

[J. Duncan]

If we eventually know for certain that it's a reflection and not a cigarette (it's not looking like we will) - what a photograph!! If a reflection, amazing that the camera would deceive the eye as it has.

Take another look. Goebbels is ready to take a puff. His posture is identical to millions of tobacco addicts when getting a nicotine fix...

Sources please.

Best,

How about the fact that I was a tobacco addict for 25 years. I've seen the identical posture thousands of times among other tobacco addicts. I no longer smoke, but I haven't forgotten the intense addiction nicotine produces. Goebbels is getting his fix and no doubt about it.

There are many photos of Goebbels smoking....another one smoking in Hitler's presence.

The "official" looks like Gauleiter Ernst Wilhelm Bohle.

Not Bohle...I think he looks more like Conti.
