“Ragnar?k” (“Death of the Gods”) - under this title Eric Wallen’s memoirs were published immediately after the war, and were soon republished as “Endkampf um Berlin” (“Last battles in Berlin”) and under the pseudonym Viking Yeerk. His fate would indeed be the envy of any of the berserker ancestors who once terrified the whole of Europe - having joined the Swedish fascist party Svensk Socialistisk Samling at the age of 17, Wallen volunteered for the Winter War against the USSR, and then, deserting from the army of neutral Sweden, fought in the Waffen-SS - in the 5th SS Panzer Division "Wiking" and the 11th SS Panzer-Grenadier Division "Nordland", with which he went from Croatia to the Courland "pocket" and from Pomerania to Berlin, was seriously wounded in the latter battles, but escaped from Soviet captivity. And he died half a century later, not in his bed at home, but at a rally of SS veterans - why not a pass to Nazi Valhalla?.. Until the very end, this Hitler “Viking” did not repent of anything and did not understand anything, remaining a sworn enemy not only of the USSR , but also the Russian people, and their pathological Russophobia and rabid hatred of “Slavic subhumans” are the best vaccine against the “brown plague”. Such books should not be banned, but prescribed to all home-grown fascists and inveterate liberals - admire the bestial grin of the European “liberators from the Stalinist yoke”, think about what would have happened to Russia if they had won, realize what a terrible enemy she defeated and drove back into the bloody Valhalla our Red Army!
