This is NOT a site meant to promote Nazism, the politics of Adolf Hitler, or any other political ideology. It deals with the subject of German military during a particular period of history--nothing else.


Field Marshal in the Wehrmacht, Commander of the 4th Army, later he led the Army Group Center and Army Group B. He was suspected in the 20 July plot to assassinate Adolf Hitler and so he committed suicide.
