Talk:Baldur von Schirach
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
[edit] German nobility?
How does Schirach belong to the list of "German nobility" if he was the son of a theater director? I believe that tag should be removed. eeesh May 5, 2006, 4:32 PM
His name was Baldur *von* Schirach; in Germany 'von' is what is called the 'noble predicate' and is a title in itself. von Schirach belonged to German untitled nobility, what we in England, for example, would call landed gentry--he held no title except his 'von', but he was a member of the nobility nonetheless. Taking aside all these considerations, financially his family were very well heeled as well.
[edit] "Repatriated"
I changed "He was repatriated" to "He was released." Repatriate means to return someone to the country of that person's origin. Spandau was in the country of his origin.

someone added the claim that he had a brief affair with paris hilton and he was "very very mean". this was a clear act of vandalism. i removed it.
