There have been countless "what if Hitler at [point X in his life]" threads. So I decided to do something a little different: talk about another prominent Nazi's near-death experience.
In 1918, Hauptmann Ernst Röhm contracted the deadly Spanish flu and was not expected to make it. But he managed to pull through, and would go on to play a major role in the growth and ascendancy of the Nazi Party, with horrific and tragic consequences.
What if he had succumbed to the disease?
