Amazing, I had no idea Hitler had an Irish sister in law. I know that later in life he had a huge appreciation for Irish music. I wonder if he discovered it through that connection.

Funny coincidence about his poem btw: In Irish mythology Brigit is the dawn/hearth goddess. Typically IE dawn goddesses are associated with the planet venus. I doubt that connection was intentional though, more likely just a lonely soldier on nightwatch appreciating it's beauty.

When younger I was quite taken by the Occult Reich meme. In the 70s, the book Spear of Destiny garnered a cult following in the UK and US. There was even a British punk band of the same name. It was only thirty years later that I realized what rubbish the Hitler biographical material was based on. Its main informant was an anthroposophical Jew, Walter J Stein but its author, Trevor Ravenscroft, concocted a lively narrative that should have been made into a film script and movie. It would make Holy Blood, Holy Grail and its similar film, DaVinci Code, seem uninspired by comparison. There's tons of info in Spear on various influencers on the 3rd Reich like Dietrich Eckhardt. Unfortunately the info is inevitably tarnished by bias and exaggeration.
