You're a German in 1932, and you have some prescience.

What should you be doing?

Non-intuitive but obvious now I've been thinking about it -- I'd go to France and do everything I could to persuade the French to prevent the re-occupation of the Rhineland. I might do it just before, with photographs of how unarmed and unready the Germans actually were, and publish them widely. It's very likely that would have toppled Hitler's government, and without that invincibility time after time getting away with it, it would have stopped snowballing.

Likely, anyway.

If that didn't work, I'd try again at the Anschluss and again at Munich, always in France.
