I do like it. The language and imagery is good, if a bit flowery. As for the content...
You can read the same in any decent revisionist book, but alongside evidence and arguments. This monologue doesn't engage in the real tension that happens when a normie who accepts the post-WWII narrative comes into contact with a revisionist/denier.
Depending on the purpose of this writing, I would suggest engaging the readers imagination to explore ideas like conspiracy and great historic lies. A great piece of writing will have someone questioning the narrative of WWII without having to mention the wooden doors or anything similar.
Something like Europe Central by William T. Vollmann. It's historical fiction, but it does a great deal to humanise the conflict. I think a piece of fiction like that, but more angled in favour of the Reich could be powerful stuff.
