<HTML>Certainly, a political discussion of Heydrich would take a different direction...but to objectively evaluate the man still another.
I hadn\'t know he was in the navy!
But my sense of him as that Heydrich was a very intelligent and capable officer. Who knows what may have become of him had he remained in the mostly NON-politcal Kriegsmarine? Still, he had a ruthless quality as well...and may have well taken a wrong turn in the Kriegsmarine eventually.
Rules of warfare at sea might not have meant so much to him. Who can say?
I know he eventually received a state funeral in Berlin, attended by Hitler himself...although his tomb was removed/demolished after the war, likely by the Russians, but perhaps by the Brits or Americans....
