Thank you for the critique, and the reason I made the reveal overt is so that there wasn't the chance of tons of people asking who it was. Also, yeah, the time traveler is a pretty sick guy himself, which I did on purpose to create more sympathy for Hitler (there's a phrase I never expected to use). Also, yeah, you can't go preventing WW2 or changing things because, well, time paradoxes. But, as he says, Hitler escaped secretly, and never made an impact on the timestream afterwards, so it's safe to screw him over afterwards. Also, the public discovery of the bunker alone would cause a time paradox, becuase it hadn't been discovered by his time in the first place. So, either it was never found, or it was found and covered up, so he had to make sure the finders knew to cover it up if it got found before he left. After he gets back the government would go in and collect everything, including dead Hitler. He was sent back to track Hitler into his original bunker, the known one, and follow him to the bunker in the story, because they discovered Hitler didn't kill himself, but didn't know where he went from there. As he says, he was ordered to kill Hitler (and the rest of the bunker), but there's no order on how-to, and he wants to make Hitler suffer because it's Hitler. In-story, the reason he makes sure the reader knows Hitler is evil is because by 2115, it'll be almost 200 years since World War 2, and to me at least, by then, humanity will think of Hitler kinda how we look back at Napoleon, more than how we currently see him as Super Satan.
