Former British King Visits Nazi Party [HD]. Edward, Duke of Windsor (formerly King Edward VIII), met Adolf Hitler at his Obersalzberg retreat against the advice of the British Governement. The Duke's visit recieved much publicity from the German Press, especially after the Duke gave full Nazi salutes which Pathe doesn't have on camera.

The Duke was considered an Ally to Nazi Germany, some historians believe that had Edward not abdicated, Anglo-German relations would have improved greatly, so much so as to avoid the War between the two countries.

  • Very fascinating display of respect from the Germans during that period.
