Visiting Officials at Wolfsschanze after the Failed 20 July 1944 Bomb Plot


When they heard about the failed assassination attempt on Hitler on 20 July 1944, a large number of party and military officials visited the Führerhauptquartier Wolfsschanze in Rastenburg, East Prussia, in order to express their sympathy and support for the Führer. This photo shows, front row from left to right: two unidentified staff officers, Generalleutnant Hans Krebs (Chef des Generalstabes Heeresgruppe Mitte), Generaloberst Alfred Jodl (Chef Wehrmacht-Führungsamt), and Generalleutnant Siegfried Westphal (Chef des Generalstabes beim Oberbefehlshaber Südwest). In the back row between Krebs and Jodl is General der Infanterie Walter Buhle (Chef vom Heeresstab im Oberkommando der Wehrmacht).
