Larry Lee Hillblom (* May 12, 1943 ; † May 21, 1995 with Saipan ) was a founding member of the international courier company DHL in 1969 , which was taken over by Deutsche Post AG in 2002.

Known for his bizarre way of life, Hillblom not only bought European castles, hotels and an airline ( Continental Micronesia ), but also had a distinct "weakness" for underage women from Vietnam and the Philippines .

In 1980 Hillblom moved to Guam , and in 1981 he moved his permanent residence to the Pacific island of Saipan , a tax haven. Despite an existing US embargo on Vietnam, Hillblom invested in a hotel from the colonial days of France after a visit to the central Vietnamese city of Da Lat . However , he did not live to see the hotel (today: " Sofitel Dalat") opened:

Hillblom died on 21 May 1995 with the crash of it controls water aircraft from the World War II near the Pacific island of Saipan . His body was never found. In 1993 he had survived a plane crash on the neighboring island of Tinian with serious injuries.

In 1982 he had decreed in his will that the children he conceived of his temporary connections should be given financial support. After his death, several lawsuits were initiated by actual and supposed children. Hillblom bequeathed $ 300,000 each to his two brothers. According to DNA analyzes, four children in Vietnam, the Philippines and Palau were each paid 90 million US dollars from the genetic material . The total assets of the DHL founder were then estimated at around 600 million US dollars. The letter H in DHL goes back to the first letter of his last name.

The University of California, San Francisco received $ 240 million from Larry Hillblom's genetic makeup in 1998 for medical research purposes.
