Hitler had insisted on meeting in the exactly same rail car, within which the German surrender of WW1 had been signed, to have the French sign their surrender in WW2. If that's not a sign of hate, I don't know what is.

- thworp 2y agoThis was more of a gesture towards the aristocracy that was still heavily present in the Army. For some context, the french also insisted that the 1919 Treaty of Versailles was signed in the same place as the 1871 Treaty of Versailles (which was similarly harsh).
