The second and last season of this edition of the New York World’s Fair closed on October 27, 1940. Unfortunately, events in Europe were descending into a second World War, and budget overruns ended up leaving the World’s Fair as a financial failure. Shown here is a view of the View of the Trylon and Perisphere being dismantled in New York, on January 23, 1941.

Man, I've really enjoyed reading this thread. I love history and especially seeing pictures with lots of history behind them.
Thanks a bunch heypaul! Also thanks to everyone else as well. I hope and wish this thread would go on for 100+ pages more like this.

Hitler was evil. The Third Reich was evil. When looking at pictures of the soldiers in the German army you can't help but wonder how many of them were actually evil or were pawns of an evil government who did not understand what was going on. Hollywood always makes it appear as if armies are made up of mostly grizzled, older men. When you look at pictures you realize most were just scared, dumb, kids.

Fegelein was in Hitler's bunker in the last days before the fall of Berlin. He ended up deserting though and was later found piss drunk and in bed with a woman who was not Eva Braun's sister. It was Hitler who personally ordered he be brought back to the Chancellery bunker and executed for desertion. Eva Braun begged for Hitler to spare him but it was to no avail. He died giving the Nazi salute and his last words were "Heil Hitler!".
