...false teeth as an inducement), gave them lessons in writing simple Swedish (which is not at all simple). He kept his sharp eye out for the big news beat, and on May 7, 1945 he found the biggest of the year-the surrender of Germany, broadcast by Grand Admiral Doenitz and picked up by Expressen's radio monitors. Nycop had been hopefully holding his presses for the news, now says that his Expressen became the world's first paper to carry the story, by rolling out an edition just 22 minutes after the announcement...

With a knack for spotting an ogle where an I-beam ought to be, Artzy has been doing covers for TIME since 1941, created a pistol-packing battleship as background for Japanese Admiral Nagano, a school of sea-monster telescopes for Admiral Doenitz, a Veto-Bug for Gromyko.

"We are agreed that if the Americans had accepted Doenitz's brilliant offer to join them in May '45 and drive the Bolsheviks back to the Volga. . . ." A few gulps of wine obscured Glaubich's last few words but, plainly, nobody disagreed...
Raeder's claim to this distinction could not be shared by the five top war criminals he left behind him in Spandau: one time Deputy Fuhrer Rudolf Hess, Hitler Youth Leader Baldur von Schirach, Munitions-Maker Albert Speer, former Reichsbank President Walther Funk and Doenitz.
