  • Günther Schwägermann was born in Uelzen and served in the Nazi government of German dictator Adolf Hitler. Specifically, from about 1940, Schwägermann was adjutant to Dr. Joseph Goebbels. In January 1945, Goebbels sent Schwägermann to his villa at Lanke, ordering him to bring his wife, Magda, and their children to stay at an air raid shelter in Schwanenwerder. By 22 April 1945, the Soviets were attacking Berlin and the Joseph and Magda Goebbels brought their children to the Führerbunker. Schwägermann came with them. It was in this protected bunker deep below Berlin that Adolf Hitler and a few loyal personnel were gathered to direct the city's final defence. On 1 May 1945, during the final days of the Battle for Berlin, Schwägermann assisted with burning the bodies after the suicides of Goebbels and his wife. His last rank was SS-Hauptsturmführer. Schwägermann survived World War II. He successfully escaped to West Germany where, until 1947, he was in American captivity. His life in postwar Germany is rarely discussed.
  • SS-Hauptsturmführer Günther Schwägermann oli toisen maailmansodan aikana propagandaministeri Joseph Goebbelsin avustaja. Schwägermann opiskeli nuoruudessaan liiketaloutta. Hän liittyi vuonna 1937 Leibstandarte SS Adolf Hitleriin ja vuonna 1938 SS Junker -kouluun. Vuonna 1939 hän meni Berliinin poliisivoimiin, josta siirtyi Goebbelsin avustajaksi. Schwägermann oli Goebbelsin mukana Führerbunkerissa Berliinissä sodan loppuhetkillä. Hän poltti Joseph Goebbelsin ja tämän vaimon Magdan ruumiit näiden tehtyä itsemurhan 1. toukokuuta 1945. Schwägermann pakeni Führerbunkerista ja oli sodan jälkeen amerikkalaisten vankina vuoteen 1947.
  • Günther Schwägermann était l'aide de camp de Joseph Goebbels depuis 1940. Son dernier grade fut SS-Hauptsturmführer. En janvier 1945 Goebbels envoie Schwägermann à sa villa à Lanke près de Berlin pour ramener sa femme Magda et leurs enfants dans un bunker antiaérien à Schwanenwerder. Le 22 avril 1945, lorsque l'Armée rouge attaque la capitale, Joseph et Magda Goebbels conduisent leurs enfants au Führerbunker, à côté de la Chancellerie. Schwägermann les accompagne. Le 1 mai 1945, lors des derniers jours de la bataille de Berlin, Schwägermann participe à l'incinération des corps du couple Goebbels et de leurs enfants. Il survécut à la guerre et réussit à s'échapper vers l'Allemagne de l'Ouest, où il fut fait prisonnier de guerre par les Américains.
