  1. The only thing I know of this guy is that I have the vague impression that if he had gotten to power in 1933, Nazi Germany would have never happened.

    That comes straight from HoI.

  2. Together with von Hindenburg, von Prittwitz and Ludendorff he slapped the Russians around. Defeated them with an army half their size.

  3. ye he whishes he was as cool as hussars ๐Ÿ˜Ž๐Ÿ˜Ž๐Ÿ˜Ž๐Ÿ˜Ž๐Ÿ˜Ž๐Ÿ˜Ž๐Ÿ˜Ž๐Ÿ˜Ž๐Ÿ˜Ž
