Good evening ev'rybody,
I just saw Eichinger's movie Der Untergang...The Fall (?).
In the movie Hitler gave his Golden Party Badge as a present to Magda Goebbels some hours before he killed himself.
Is this fact or just a movie scene?
And when it's a fact what happened to the Badge when Magda Goebbels killed herself? Who took care of the Badge?
Which way took it till today...and where is it today?

Thanx for your answers....
one more question:
On this website http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blutfahne you'll find the information that the blood flag was bought by a german collector some years ago. Do you think that this is fact...I always read in this forum that the blood flag was destryed during an allied bombing over Munich.
Notice the last sentence: Today (2004) the Blood Flag is owned by a private collector in North Germany.

Blutfahne war die offizielle Bezeichnung für die diejenige Hakenkreuzfahne, die beim Marsch auf die Feldherrnhalle in München am 9. November 1923 von den Anhängern Hitlers mitgeführt wurde.
In Folge des Schießbefehls der bayrischen Polizei gab es 16 Tote unter Hitlers Anhängern, unter anderem wurde auch der Fahnenträger und SA-Mann Heinrich Trambaur erschossen. Sein Blut spritzte auf die Fahne. So wurde sie zum Kultgegenstand der NSDAP. Heute (2004) ist sie bei einem Sammler aus Norddeutschland in Privatbesitz.

As far I know, the blood flag still exist. Just because was never seen again doesnt mean was destroyed.
The famous brown house was dammaged for the air raids, but not full destroyed, many artifacts of that house were looted and the end of the war.
Gaulaitier of Munich Paul Giesler, took with him, lots of doccuments and artifacts and the end of the war. He flee to Berchtesgaden where he comites suicide with his wife. He never knew he was appointed for Hitler 4th man of the whole Reich ( just behind Doenitz, Goebbles, and Hanke). The case of Giesler is very interesting because he was in the list of the people to be killed in 1934 in the SA purge, he save his life just in the last minutes, but was expelled from the SA.
Any research about the fate of the Blood flag, in my opinion must be start with Giesler who was the person in charge of it cusstody, as a maximun nazi chief in Munich in 1945.
