Nazis forced Freud to swear they did not mistreat him before they would give permission for his family to flee Vienna. To save their lives, Freud signed the statement, saying that he'd added: "I can heartily recommend the Gestapo to anyone." @RealTimeWWIIThere is a widely repeated story that the Nazis made Freud sign a document stating that they had treated him with “respect and consideration”. According to the story, Freud added beneath his signature: “I can heartily recommend the Gestapo to anyone”.
The document was subsequently found by researchers and contains no such comment.
