8. Hermann Goering
The Great Was ace pilot and the last commander of the legendary Flying Circus, Baron von Richthofen’s Jagdgeschwader 1, Hermann Goering was one of the earliest Hitler’s supporters. In 1932, after the landslide Nazi victory in parliamentary elections, he was elected President of the Reichstag. Goering was considered number two man in Nazi organization and Hitler even named him his successor in his will, a fact Goering tried to use and usurp power just before the end of the war. He was sentenced to death but committed suicide before the sentence could be carried out.
