    That's pretty much the only woman's name that I thought of, too.

    Didn't her sister marry one of Hitler's entourage or officers?

    Maybe such as the land workers, but good question as it is obvious we dont know the answer.

    I don't know but I wouldn't be surprised, of course! I would imagine that the sisters would hang out in the same circles. Good answer, by the way.

    On June 3, 1944 Eva Braun's younger sister Gretl (1915-1987) married Hermann Fegelein who served as Heinrich Himmler's liaison on Hitler's staff.

    Sings this tender maternal song
    About Zoya, the girl, who has become a legend,
    Who died and was born for eternal life.

    Fegelein was summarily executed after failing to report to Hitler (More or less termed as desertion) in the Fuhrerbunker during the last days before Germany's capitulation in May 1945. It is graphically depicted in the Film - Downfall.

    I never know them but I think that they might be the most involve women in WW2 based on those pictures that you have provided. I wonder what they did to be crowned this way.

    Eva Braun was indeed the most famous germen woman who played important role in world war 2. Otherwise, German women in World War 2 did not play as major role as did the women of other countries.
