Heinrich von Vietinghoff after Surrender

Generaloberst Heinrich von Vietinghoff (Oberbefehlshaber Südwest und Oberbefehlshaber Heeresgruppe C) is questioned by U.S. Captain Ralph C. Opperman, interpreter for Lieutenant-General Lucian K. Truscott, after the capitulation of all German forces in Italy. At the end of April 1945, Vietinghoff made contact with the Allied forces and on 29 April, his representative SS-Obergruppenführer Karl Wolff signed on his behalf at the Royal Palace in Caserta the instrument of surrender on 2 May 1945 at noon. Afterwards he spent two and a half years in British captivity at Bridgend Island Farm (Special Camp XI) among high-ranking German prisoners. He was released in September 1947.
