Who was one of the Hitler's food tasters who worked at the first Eastern Front military headquarters?
Margot Wölk Margot Wölk, sometimes written without "ö" as Margot Woelk (born 27 December 1917), is a German former secretary who was one of 15 young women who, in 1942, were selected to taste German leader Adolf Hitler's food at the Wolf's Lair in East Prussia for some two and a half years in order to confirm that the food was safe to eat and didn't contain any harmful toxins or poisons. She was the only one of the 15 to survive World War II, and her background as Hitler's food taster was not revealed until a newspaper interview on her 95th birthday in December 2012.
Richard Wendler Richard Wendler (22 January 1898, Oberndorf bei Salzburg – 24 August 1972, Prien am Chiemsee) was a high-ranking Nazi official during World War II. During the occupation of Poland, he was the Governor of new District Lublin in the General Government, in charge of Lublin concentration camp and the creation of the Częstochowa Ghetto, among others. Before his deployment to Poland, he was the mayor of the city Hof between 1933 and 1941 and became an SS-"Gruppenführer" in 1942 during the murderous Operation Reinhard. Wendler was "Reichsführer-SS" Heinrich Himmler's brother-in-law; his sister was married to a brother of Himmler.
