Heinrich Himmler's daughter Gudrun Burwitz, unrepentant neo-Nazi, dies aged 88Gudrun Burwitz, the daughter of high-ranking Nazi Heinrich Himmler, has died aged 88.
She was an unrepentant Nazi and a Holocaust denier. Her father was head of the SS and a chief architect of the genocide against the Jews.
According to German newspaper Bild, Munich-based Burwitz worked for the country's Federal Intelligence Service in the 1960s.
It reported that Burwitz, who was active in far right circles into her old age, was employed from the end of 1961 until 1963 as a secretary at the BND in Pullach, Munich, under a different name.
Burwitz participated in Nazi marches and never distanced herself from her father or his crimes.

OP
People knew this time. What's being confirmed is that she worked for the German Spy Agency.

(90,803 posts)9. Heh. It's not you. It's the way the article is written.
I check off dead Nazis. I know how that sounds but I like knowing they're dead...rather than alive. So...I keep watch.

I had googled her name, not all that long ago.

(90,803 posts)12. I got a email from a friend in Germany who saw it in a German rag.
And then verified it.
She was a staunch loyalist to her father and the Nazis until the bitter end, her own.
That she worked for the BND is shameful.
