Blaskowitz

You are right sir! Had forgotten about withdrawal from southern france. He was very very good at his job. Would have done well (as if it would have helped) in russia. So - do you think he offed himself? I have a hard time with the line that he did so, and as you know, he irritated a few people! Do y...

Himmler/Heydrich

I agree that Heydrich was by far the more dangerous of the two. Insatiable ambition- it would not suprise me if the guy wanted to be the head of it all.

Hitler/Himmler

I don't think there is anything written either. The closest thing I've seen is the Wansee Protocol. Have visited that place, and still wonder how humans, however evil, conceived it.

Rommel

Das Reich- Rommel was a passive conspirator. Stauffenberg was no traitor. He sincerely believed that he was trying to save his country from destruction. That isn't treason, but patriotism of the highest order. If you have not been to the Bendlerstrasse (now Staufenbergstrasse) to see the courtyard w...
