  • 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”.
    "Some preachers will keep silence about the truth, and others will trample it underfoot and deny it. Sanctity of life will be held in derision even by those who outwardly profess it, for in those days Our Lord Jesus Christ will send them not a true Pastor but a destroyer."  St. Francis of Assisi

    I haven't seen the movie in quite some time. I should watch it again. however, I am always skeptical of Jєωywood's version of the "nαzιs" on film. Seems they had a real dilemma  there with Sauffenberg being a devout Catholic. although, I don't remember that being displayed in the movie.

    I have to admit, i'm ignorant of the colonel's background, only about the assassination attempt.

    I'll have to do more research when I can.
