A former German army lieutenant who took part in a plot to assassinate German leader Adolf Hitler in 1944 has died.

Ewald-Heinrich von Kleist died aged 90 at his home in Munich last Friday, his wife Gundula told the Associated Press.

Mr von Kleist was just 22 when he volunteered to wear a suicide vest at a meeting with Hitler.

Alright - pot stirring time,

Isn’t this guy a Traitor.? ;)

Thanks Malachi. Another good story.

Hkytown: I will watch any war film and watched this, knowing I could not stand Tom Cruise, but loved the story. My major complaint was the American voices. I like Germans talking in German! Give me subtitles.
I bought it and I will watch it again.

Garg:as you know, I am a lover of all things German.
When it comes to overthrowing Hitler and the regime, however, I side with the" honourable" Germans: those who put their country first. Some were Catholics, others aristos; they all had a reason. (Some might have thought they could have done a better job.)I,therefore, do not view them as traitors.

Holy hell!  This guy was recently alive?

wow.

My major complaint was the American voices

But what about all the British accents? You think that was better?  They did pull a Star Wars with that movie ( evil people with British accents running death star)

Atleast Star Wars was a total fiction though, and not “very loosely” based on historical people/events.
