Generalfeldmarschall Wilhelm Keitel (left, Chef der Oberkommando der Wehrmacht) chats with Generaloberst Heinz Guderian (Chef des Generalstabes des Heeres). The picture was taken by Walter Frentz at the Führerhauptquartier Wolfsschanze in Rastenburg, East Prussia, in the summer of 1944. Guderian wished to have nothing to do with the July Conspiracy in 1944. Many of his erstwhile colleagues were successfully accused of complicity in the bomb plot against the Führer, which led to the execution of most of The Leader’s best commanders, including Rommel, who was forced to take poison.
