...been shifted away from the 2,000,000 Storm Troops to the 55, that the Storm Troops were being relegated back to the gutter whence they had originally sprung.

Himmler at Home. The Himmler villa is in Grunewald, suburb of Berlin. Not nearly so pretentious a residence as the Göring palace, the Goebbels Schwanenwerder estate or the Hitler Chancellery, it is quite as well guarded. A medical specialist summoned recently to examine Frau Himmler was reported to have had to submit credentials and answer questions to six different guards before arriving at her boudoir...
