The Nazi party's greatest embarrassment comes to light in History Undercover: Rudolf Hess - The Man Who Died Twice. Rudolf Hess was one of the highest-ranking members of the Third Reich. Fanatically dedicated to Adolf Hitler, Hess committed himself unflinchingly to the success of his Fuhrer. When his closeness with the leader was threatened by power-hungry officers, Hess stole an airplane and flew to Scotland. He declared his mission to be one of peace, but the English doubted his sincerity and imprisoned him immediately. Now, details about Hess' real motives are becoming clear. The man who was jailed for 46 years might have been telling the truth. Does that make him a Nazi hero or a wartime patsy?
