What happens
A group of Wehrmacht officers opposed to the war have launched a coup in Berlin. An unidentified party of armed men stormed the Reichskanzlei and, following a shootout with his bodyguards, successfully took the life of the German Führer. The surviving conspirators have all been arrested by the Gestapo, and this morning Heinrich Himmler was sworn in as the new Führer of the German Reich. In a speech before the Reichstag, Himmler accused Britain and France of masterminding Hitler's assassination and stated Germany's unequivocal commitment to the utter destruction of both nations.
