Unfortunately something that we may never know. The testicle found in the Albert Hall may well have belonged to him but not enough DNA evidence was found in his burial pit to determine an exact match.
Octavious. My mother told me this when I was a kid. She said the body had never been found. I did'nt question it and until now have gone along with it. I would really like to know about the finding of "The Evil One's" body. My Mum passed away many years ago likewise my Dad so I cant ask them. Any info please. thanks..
In 1970, the Russians announced that an autopsy had revealed that one testicle was missing. This may be dubious because the autopsy may have been inhibited by the destruction of the body by burning soon after death. However, he was wounded in 1916 and the injury is sometimes described as 'in the groin'. Also, in the 1914 - 1916 war, his company commander said that a VD examination had revealed that one was missing.
