I was unaware of Gisiveus’s attack on Col. Stauffenberg?
If you have a copy of “ Holding The Stirrup”, there’s a fascinating account of Col. Staffenberg while in a German hospital recovering from his wounds received from the US Air Force in N. Africa.
He had lost his right eye and hand and two fingers on his left hand.
His relative, Baroness Elisabeth von Guttenberg received a message that Claus wanted to speak with her, so she made the treacherous passage to Berlin by train.
Upon entering the hospital room, she could not explain how Claus was able to look good and energetic and be so upbeat?
After to door was closed, he told he was being transferred to an administrative job in Berlin and would be close to Hitler.
He said, God had given me a second chance, and I will kill him.
This hospital room scene is completely opposite to how it was depicted in the movie “Valkyrie”.
