A cure for your tired German pixeltruppen.


Recommended Posts

I remember reading that Hitler took meth on a daily basis from mid-43 until the end. That would explain a few things.

Also read an article about the first amphetamine overdose in Finland, happened during the war, an LRRP patrol was being pursued by Soviets and a trooper decided to do what he had been told, take one of the new Pervitin pills issued to them. Unfortunately he was skiing, under fire and wearing mittens so instead of pouring the 2-4 pills he ended up chomping down a couple of dozen. In the interview he said his next memory was that he was skiing very fast a few hundred kilometers from the location. He was lost in the woods for quite some time, eating bark and a bird he found frozen solid. IIRC he weighed under 40 kilograms when he finally reached civilization.

My granpa told that during the war he and his comrades drank some german cough medicine and after that stayed awake for 5 days. When they finally fell asleep it happened in a ditch next to an artillery battery which was constantly firing and they didn't wake up to that noise in a long long time.
