Summary
French went into industrial heartland to take material for reparations. Hitler gave speech in beer hall and motivated the men to take over the local government. Only a fraction of the men show up and Hitler and Ludendorff are arrested.
Subjunctive question
If Hitler had succeeded at this time, would he have risen to power faster or possibly taken a different route?
