Nearest Hitler is difficult |
General Adolf Heusinger (August 4, 1897 – November 30, 1982) was a German general officer who served as Adolf Hitler’s Chief of the General Staff of the Army during World War II and served as the first Inspector General of the Bundeswehr, the West German armed forces, from 1957 to 1961. Heusinger served as Chairman of the NATO Military Committee from 1961 to 1964.
With the outbreak of the Second World War, the German Army High Command (the OKH) assumed its wartime organization. Heusinger accompanied the field staff and assisted in the planning of operations for the invasions of Poland, Denmark, Norway, and France and the Low Countries. He was promoted to colonel on August 1, 1940 and became chief of the Operationsabteilung in October 1940, making him number three in the Army planning hierarchy, after the Chief of the General Staff, General Franz Halder, and the Deputy Chief of the General Staff/Chief Quartermaster, General Friedrich Paulus.

Heusinger was hospitalized for his injuries in the explosion, but was arrested and interrogated by the Gestapo to determine his role, if any, in the July Plot.
Although there was
evidence that Heusinger had had contacts with many of the conspirators,
there was insufficient evidence to directly connect him to the plot, and
he was freed in October 1944. However, he was placed into the
"Führer-Reserve" and was not assigned to another position until March
25, 1945, when he was made chief of armed forces mapping department (Chef Wehrmacht-Kartenwesen). He was taken prisoner by the Western Allies in May 1945.
Upon surrendering to U. S. Army authorities in May 1945, the question of his implication as a war criminal arose in connection with certain orders he signed and forwarded which sealed the fate of captured Russian political indoctrination officers and Allied commandos

According to documents released by the German intelligence agency
(Bundesnachrichtendienst, or BND) in 2014, Heusinger may have been part
of the Schnez-Truppe (1), a secret army that veterans of the Wehrmacht and
Waffen-SS sought to establish in the early ’50s. He was, according to
news reports, wanted by the Russians in respect of organizing the
Koriukivka massacre (mass murder of 6,700 residents of Koriukivka in
Ukraine on 1-2 March 1943 by German SS. On 9 March, the Germans returned
to Koriukivka and burned alive some elderly people who had returned to
the village after escaping thinking it was safe).(2)
How clever are the Germans !. Their murderous generals are not guilty because they only gave orders on the table , by the way also signed them, and their murderous soldiers are not guilty because they only obeyed orders. Do you think that their sons and grandsons had changed ?
(1) The "Schnez-Truppe" was an illegal clandestine army put together in Germany from 1949 by veterans of the Wehrmacht and Waffen-SS under the leadership of Albert Schnez, that intended to fight against the Soviet Union.It has been reported as having had around 2,000 officers, with a total strength of up to 40,000 members
