Interesting video but Dr. Felton makes one slip up, the 45 Inf Div Museum is not in Tulsa.
Somebody has already posted that in the comments to his video.
British historian Mark Felton says Hitler loved to wear a cloak.
According to Felton, a GI decided to send some silverware back home to Oklahoma from Hitler's apartment in Munich -- and wrapped it up in the former Corporal's cloak.
The GI's wife took a liking to the cloak and had it shortened so she could wear it; years later the garment eventually wound up in the 45th Infantry Division museum.
The part about Hitler's apartment in Munich starts around 3:20.
