"Ancestry.co.uk, which bills itself as Britain's leading family
history website, has begun the online launch of the Bavarian WWI
Personnel Rosters, a collection of records showing the military
service activities of 1.5 million soldiers who fought with the
Bavarian Regiment in the "war to end all wars."
"The documents include those of then 25-year-old volunteer Lance
Corporal Adolf Hitler, whose record describes him as a "Catholic," an
"Artist" and a "Messenger (bike rider) for the Regiment," whose role
was to carry dispatches back and forth from the command staff to
units near the battlefield.

By rbt standards, this doesn't prove that
Hitler was evil unless you can show he was
riding a brakeless fixie, or running traffic signals.
