Hermann Doehner of Felix y Campagna in Mexico - pharmaceutical company https://facesofthehindenburg.blogspot.com/2009/02/doehner-family.html. “Hermann Doehner was general manager of Beick, Felix y Compania, a prominent German wholesale drug company headquartered in Mexico City, Mexico.”

Nelson Morris, an executive in the meatpacking industry, later recalled, “The most remarkable thing that I know in my life, I took metal rods an inch thick in my hands and I broke them. They broke like paper.”
This is similar to the reports I saw at one time about the fact that the Titanic was sinking long before it left port, due to the shortcuts taken to stay on schedule for the maiden voyage from massive pressure by the money men behind the White Star Line. One key shortcut was the flaw in the engine that couldn’t harness the coal energy well enough or something along those lines, that caused the engine to burn way too hot and too long, distressing the hull before it even left port. It was a documentary I saw a few years ago, but I cannot remember where or what it was called. Sorry. However, when I saw the “metal rods” comment, it triggered the memory. Maybe an engineering pepe could help here.
Erich Knöcher, maker of wire mesh products seemed to mysteriously die a couple of days later after a blood transfusion. Huhn. https://facesofthehindenburg.blogspot.com/2008/10/passenger-age-38-hometown-zeulenroda.html
Wow. More and more possibilities.
Thanks for this resource, Based.
