THE DAY HEYDRICH BECAME THE MOST FEARED NAZI IN EUROPE (USA, 2024) - As SS-Obergruppenführer, Heydrich was instrumental in consolidating the SS as a dominant force in the Third Reich. His leadership in the Reich Main Security Office, and later in the Gestapo, allowed him to implement his vision of an efficient and feared security organization. Heydrich's rise culminated in his appointment as Protector of Bohemia and Moravia, and he was widely considered a potential heir to Hitler, given his iron-fisted control and unwavering loyalty to the Führer. The relationship between Hitler and Heydrich was one of mutual admiration and dependence. Hitler needed men like Heydrich to carry out his vision for the Third Reich, and Heydrich, in turn, benefited from his proximity to the leader. Heydrich, the cold and calculating man, had an almost symbiotic relationship with Hitler. It was said that Hitler saw in him an extension of himself, someone he could trust blindly to carry out the most horrific tasks without a hint of doubt or remorse. YouTube.
