79. Flood p. 524. Note: Drexler and Rosenberg are also said to have been anointed as Hitler's successors, and may well have been. Hitler was famous from the start for creating separate and opposing centers of power among his cronies, and this may well be evidence of that, though there is some dispute over the authenticity of the "clarification".

115. Flood p. 546.

116. Toland p. 177. Shirer p. 73, supposes that Goering had threatened to kill the city council hostages if they did not surrender the bridge, but this is most certainly not the case. The hostages were, in fact, back in the relative safety of the Bürgerbräukeller at that moment.

122. Payne p. 178. Bullock p. 111. Flood p. 547. Shirer p. 73. Note: There is much movement as concerns the relative positions of the leading marchers during the length of the march. While Ludendorff remains in the lead for the most part, others can be found ahead of him at various times, etc.. The loose order-of-march presented in this item is a best snapshot of the positioning around the time that the shots are fired.

123. Payne p. 178. Flood p. 552. Toland p. 178.

124. Payne p. 179. Bullock 112.

128. Flood p. 553, 554.

129. Payne p. 179. Read p. 100. Note: Estimates of the length of time during which the shooting occurred range from twenty seconds to one full minute. The longer estimate seems the most probable, but is by no means clearly established as absolute fact.

130. Payne p. 179. Read p. 101. Shirer p. 75. Toland p. 180, says that the sisters had gone out into the streets to help the wounded. Note: Just as Hitler has his "favorite Jew"-the family doctor who treated his mother for breast cancer-these two sisters become Goering's "favorite Jews". They will benefit from his protection during the Holocaust.

131. Heiden p. 198. Payne p. 179, 180. Read p. 101. Flood p. 554. Note: The tale of Ulrich Graf, the superhuman hero of the putsch, will become a Nazi legend. It is difficult to discern the actual facts, but it hardly matters for the purposes of this narrative.

132. Payne p. 179, 180. Flood p. 554.

133. Flood p. 555.

134. Flood p. 555, 556.

135. Payne p. 180. Fest p. 189. Toland p. 179. Note: An eye-witness, American Robert Murphy, and at least two others, testified that both Hitler and Ludendorff had hit the ground in the manner of a combat veteran, and that Ludendorff had taken cover behind a corpse. However, scores of witnesses would contend that Ludendorff never dived, and that Hitler was dragged down by his dead comrade. The weight of the evidence favors the later scenario, in my view. However, the matter is in no way settled.
