His uncle sounds like a more sensible fellow. I note with approval that he married outside of the high nobility despite Willy the idiot having disinherited any descendants who do this in advance, and that he wrote his doctoral thesis about the Hohenzollern and Nazidom, i.e. the very thing the current guy is in denial about.

Young Fritz letter: awwww, but also, go, Wilhelmine and Gustav Volz for being able to decypher this.
