OT- Heydrich anniversary
Today is the 70th anniversary of the attack on Reinhard Heydrich by Jan Kubis and Josef Gabcik in Prague; one of those occasions where the world can be considered a better place just for one man's removal from it.

Could you imagine if he had gotten the reins of the Reich? All the evil, but only 10% of the crazy!
 The war would have been a lot harder with him in the driver's seat.

Good riddance. The reprisals for his killing were brutal, though.

The best way that man served the world was by leaving it. Good riddance. The reprisals, though....harsh would be an understatement.

Pretty sure he was part of Hitler's Inner Circle...same sort of level as Himmler, Goering, Bormann, etc. I think I have read somewhere that he was considered to be a possible successor to Hitler.
