Hitler in Paris

One of the things that I learned it Paris was that Hitler gave orders to destroy the city. When it became clear to Hitler that Paris would fall, he gave direct orders to general Dietrich von Choltitz to completely destroy the city of Paris, leaving it as a smoking ruin. Fortunately for the world, general Choltitz disobeyed his orders.
