    In World War II, where was the German Cornel Staufingburg before being transported to Berlin for healing, where he planned to overthrow Hitler?

    Question #106249. Asked by treeko1. (Jun 11 09 10:01 AM)


    Watchkeeper

    "In early 1943, Stauffenberg served with the 10th Panzer Division in Field Marshal Erwin Rommel's Afrika Korps. On April 7, 1943, he was seriously wounded at Sebkhet en Noual, south of Mezzouna in the North African desert, when Allied fighters strafed his vehicle. He lost his left eye, right hand, and last two fingers of his left hand after surgery."

    Not Cornel!
    His name was Claus von Stauffenberg, and although his rank is not mentioned in watchkeeper's site it is 'Oberst', the German equivalent of Colonel.
