What was hitlers role in the first world war ?

Corporal Hitler. In 1913, Hitler moved to Munich, Germany. The Austrian Army called him for a physical examination, but he was found unfit for service.

World War I began in August 1914. Hitler volunteered immediately for service in the German Army and was accepted. He served valiantly as a messenger on the Western Front for most of the war, taking part in some of the bloodiest battles. He was wounded and twice decorated for bravery. But Hitler rose only to the rank of corporal. When Germany surrendered in November 1918, he was in a military hospital recovering from temporary blindness that resulted from his exposure in battle to mustard gas. He was deeply shaken by news of the armistice. He believed that the unity of the German nation was threatened, and that he must attempt to save Germany.

Hello lulusuga

No special role at all. Hitler was an Austrian but his focus and admiration was for Germany.
On the outbreak of worldwar1 he went to Germany and served there in the army.
At the end of the war he had the (low) rank of corporal.

And what website did you copy and paste that from? You have been warned before about doing such a copy/paste job without attributing the site.

But this shows you know how to research on the WEB, so why have you been posting questions that you can easily find answers to yourself?

Suggested Bibliography :-

Bullock, Alan. Hitler and Stalin. Knopf, 1992.

Fest, Joachim C. Hitler. 1974. Reprint. Harcourt, 1992.

Heyes, Eileen. Adolf Hitler. Millbrook, 1994.

Schwaab, Edleff H. Hitler's Mind. Praeger, 1992.

Toland, John. Adolf Hitler. Doubleday, 1976.

Trevor-Roper, Hugh R. The Last Days of Hitler. 6th ed. 1987. Reprint. Univ. of Chicago Pr. 1992.

That doesn't answer my question. Are you claiming that you did not copy and paste that answer from a WEB site? But that you wrote it based on information you read from those books?

YES , I am.
The full article I read was by :-
Peter Hoffmann, Ph.D. Fellow of the Royal Society of Canada; William Kingsford Prof. of History, McGill Univ.

So, you are saying that in 21 minutes (the time difference between the original post and your reply), that you were able to find the article, read it and write that information. Or are you saying that you had that level of detail on the top of your head from reading that article at some time?

And I notice, that while you attribute the author of the article, you don't name the article or provide a link to it.

Hmm, I did find a book by Dr Hoffman (Hitler's Personal Security ... - Google Book Search)
On Page 174 it states that Hitler moved to Munich in 1913 to avoid military service in the Austrian army. Nothing about failing the physical.

Ahh I think I found where you "borrowed" your answer from:
Adolf Hitler

Clearly a copy and paste job. What bugs me, is that this could be so easily avoided. All you had to do, as I just did, was say:

I found this information here:

With a link to the site. But no, you have to portray it as your own work. Then you lie about it. This site will not tolerate plagiarism. If this happens again, you will be banned.
