Peter Melbourne writes from Victoria, Australia on Tuesday, June 11, 2002 to tell us what he knows about "Peter Stahl"
Another Peter Stahl aliasI ALSO heard that "Gregory Douglas" goes under the name of Aaron L. Johnson. The person under that name recently authored the book Hitler's Headquarters - Organisation, Structure, Security and Personal, a Roger Bender publication.
Hugh Page Taylor lives a suburb away from me and I've asked him a few times about Douglas but he remains very noncommittal. I believe he must find it hard that his friend Roger James Bender [publisher of the counterfeit Gestapo-Müller Interrogations] has been "sucked in" by Douglas.
No doubt you're aware that Werner Maser [German professor, historian] uses Douglas as a source in his biography on Hermann Göring. Again, one would think that Maser would know better.
Your story about the civil servant signing Adolf Hitler's signature on a number of documents no doubt came from Johannes Göhler [adjutant of SS Brigadeführer Hermann Fegelein]. I met Hannes Göhler a few weeks ago whilst in Germany for a visit. He owns a geniune document with Hitler's signature on it. He made sure the Führer signed it in his presence.

David Irving replies:
YES, my source was Johannes Göhler. He provided me in the 1970s with a sheaf of letters which he wrote to his wife from Hitler's HQ during the war years, a vital source of information in my biography Hitler's War. I am hoping to peresuade him to speak one day at our annual Cincinnati Real History convention. The Göhlers jointly gave me information on the location of the still unretrieved Hitler/Eva Braun corresopoindence and diaries, which were seized by CIC agent Robert Gutierrez in 1945. I shall shortly post my entire file on the latter mystery.
