April 19 Broadcasting birthday greetings to j Hitler on the eastern front, Goebbels I said: -The nation, while enduring daily petty worries, senses that Hitler is fighting his gigantic battle on the Eastern front, planning throughout ] the night., judging and weighing up. From the Fuehrer's headquarters there radiate to the remotest point of the front those waves of will-power inspiring hard-pressed regiments. -Hitler, although surrounded by devoted collaborators, is really alone. He alone bears responsibility for the future of a great people. We now end a winter which is unparalleled in human history for hardship and for endurance. History will call this period a decisive phase of the gigantic struggle. "We pray the Almighty to give the Fuehrer strength to increase and multiply his works, bring victory to our nation, the fulfilment of what he started.” Goebbels spoke in the Philharmonic Hall in Berlin.
