Since we’re just going to be tossing out the names of Nazi officials until someone guesses right, I think we should just call this one a win for **EH** and move on. ---

> [@AppallingGael](#): > > …I mean, it’s obviously Himmler… Again with the forgotten moustaches! No, it was Reinhard Heydrich, Himmler’s top thug, chair of the Wannsee Conference, and the only Nazi official purposefully assassinated by the Allies. I read a bio of him a few years ago - a very scary guy: [Reinhard Heydrich - Wikipedia](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heydrich) Who’d like to start our next quiz? ---
