Antarctica without the swastika

For a long time, Germany had intended to announce their territory, Antarctica, or use it as a military base. The Germans have repeatedly sent expeditions there, but the general public about them, very little is known. Bloody fascist dictator Adolf Hitler nearly succeeded in turning the ice continent in the next ' ownership ' of the Third Reich. Only the defeat of the Nazis in 1945 prevented the conquest of Antarctica to bring before the end of.

The first German Antarctic expedition took place in 1873 under the Englishman Sir Edward Dallman, who worked on the instructions of the newly founded German Society of Polar Research. In an attempted march Dallman opened new routes to Antarctica. In the next 60 years were carried out two expeditions in 1910 and 1925 respectively.

In the years before World War II, Germany was trying to take over part of Antarctica for the construction of military bases. At that time there was no agreement between the countries of the neutral status of this continent, and Germany sought to occupy, in her opinion, ' no man ' territory. Hitler wanted to create a military base in Antarctica, which, apart from geographical advantages (the ability to rapid attack on Australia, South America and the colonies of the United States in the Pacific Ocean ), promised an additional trump card in the campaign for the upcoming ' thousand-year Reich '.



On the other hand, the Germans for some time tried to avoid provocations. The opposing party in the face of British and French are suspicious and wary of German activity in Antarctica. Hitler longed for the northern polar areas, but was not ready to fight for them. Hence the idea of ​​' scientific ' expedition to explore the prospects for development of civil aviation under the ' patronage ' German airline ...



' Civil ' expedition led by Alfred Ritscher, who had already had experience of trekking to the North Pole and proved himself a brave and skilful captain. Ritscher outfitted expedition ship ' Shvabenlend '. It was a special cargo vessel, re- carrier under the. Since 1934 it has been used for transatlantic postal traffic. Prepared for the polar expedition airplanes mounted on steam catapults on the bow of the ship, where they were able to take off.

' Shvabenlend ' was equipped at the docks of Hamburg and its equipment at a cost of 1 million Reichsmarks - nearly a third of the total budget of the expedition.


While preparations were underway for the ship, the German Society of Polar Research was selected and trained team. To enhance crew from America 's most famous explorer called Antarctica, Professor Richard Byrd. Flattered at the very ' scientific ' purposes swimming, gladly Byrd agreed to participate in the conquest of Antarctica, and even arrived in Hamburg. After meeting his future team, which consisted of half- hardened Gestapo, American changed his mind.

They have been written on the rozhah it is Hitler's warriors, and not the sailors and scientists - later recalled Byrd. - Also in the holds of anti-aircraft guns were stored, the mountains of weapons, dynamite and equipment. All this is clearly not going to use against the Penguins.

Byrd made ​​a choice that America is estimated. Once the war began, the U.S. Navy called to active duty professor, where he made a brilliant career. Ended the war in the position of Admiral Byrd, and is said to have personally destroyed the last German military base in Antarctica, which allegedly called ... However, we'll discuss this below.

In mid- February 1939 ' Shvabenlend ' left Antarctica. The return of the ship in Hamburg took two months.

Ritscher used this time for the classification of research results, maps and photos. Captain Ritscher was so impressed with the results of the expedition, which immediately began to plan for a second, fully civilian, expedition, using a light aircraft on skis. However, these plans had to be officially canceled due to World War II. But were they actually canceled?.

The first information about a secret Nazi refuge in the ice of Antarctica, code-named ... In the summer of 1945 the Yankees have found off the coast of Argentina, two German submarines. U.S. ships were able to drive the submarine at the mouth of the river, where they captured. It turned out that these are special submarines of the so -called ' convoy Fuhrer '. During the interrogation, the crews allegedly found the following: ' In April 1945 the submarine U-977 and U- 530 ( Heinz Shaumlfer commanders and Otto Verhmut ) took on board a special secret cargo and five passengers, whose faces were masked. The route ran to the area of ​​the Schirmacher Oasis in Antarctica. There, masked men went ashore, mysterious boxes were fetched, and the boat went to Argentina, where was located another secret Nazi base. There they were spotted and American warships '. It can be assumed that these data have forced Americans to immediately equip an expedition to Antarctica Admiral Byrd.


The operation ' High jump ' was attended by 13 warships of various types and four thousand troops. However, this armada returned to America with nothing. And not because they did not find anything. According to some newspapers at that time, the experienced Admiral Byrd met with fierce resistance from the coast of Antarctica, even lost a few ships, and only because ordered to retreat. Also said that the attack eskadrapodverglas flying discs with a swastika on board, and antiaircraft artillery was powerless against these air vehicles.

They seem to have designed the scientists ' Third Reich ' and the end of the war were evacuated to the Antarctic base. I want to emphasize that all these stories have no actual evidence yet. Moreover, the representative of the Institute of Arctic and Antarctic Sciences Vladimir Stepanov says that our expedition has never met traces of the Nazis in Antarctica. However, he immediately stressed that such a task in front of our researchers and should not be made. Meanwhile it is known that during the war off the coast of Queen Maud Land is really acting squadron of German ships and submarines that are ruthlessly drowned any vessel approaching there. Why are they protected wilderness coast?.
