His bride apparently had no appetite for lunch that day, and Hitler took his meal with his two secretaries and with his vegetarian cook, who perhaps did not realize that she had preparedhis last meal. While they were finishing their lunch at about 2:30PM, Erich Kempka, the Fuehrer's chauffeur, who was in charge of the Chancellery garage, received an order to deliver immediately 200 liters of gasoline in cans to the Chancellery garden. Kempka had some difficulty in rounding up so much fuel, but he managed to collect some 180 liters and with the help of three men carried it to the emergency exit of the bunker.
那天,他的新娘显然没有胃口用午餐,希勒特与他的两名秘书以及那位烹调素食的厨师一起进餐。厨师或许还不知道,她准备的是希特勒的最后一餐。大约下午2点30分,当他们快用完午餐的时候,元首的司机,负责总理府车库的埃里希·肯普卡接到命令,要立即将200公升汽油装在油罐内送到总理府花园。肯普卡要搞这么多汽油颇有困难,但他还是设法收集到大约180公升,在3名士兵帮助下,扛到地堡的紧急出口处。
