He was killed in a car accident in Germany, the speculation was that
the accident was not an accident. During the late 40s and 50s there
was talk that he was killed to keep him from starting World War III or
to keep him out of politics. There was very little made public about
US troops looting reported at the time, it wasn't until a couple of
years ago when the discovery of German art treasures in Texas stirred
things up and started the historians digging.
