Martin Ludwig Bormann, born on June 17, 1900, emerged as a dominant and feared figure within the Third Reich. His role as an obsessive bureaucrat allowed him to significantly influence Hitler's regime, effectively becoming the covert ruler of Nazi Germany. After joining the Nazi Party in 1927, Bormann's ascent through its ranks showcased his strategic prowess in managing the party's operations and terror mechanisms.

Described as one of the greatest mass-murderers in history, Rudolf Hoss, was born in Baden-Baden on 11 December 1901.

Bormann joined the Nazi Party in 1927 and quickly rose through its ranks. In July 1933 he became the Chief of Cabinet in the Office of the Deputy Fuhrer.
