Summary 1945 - after the disarmament of all German soldiers and officers by the Allies, there should never be a Wehrmacht again. 11 years later, however, the officers are on everyone's lips again: Erich von Manstein planned Hitler's war of aggression and became the idol of the new Bundeswehr. Hans Speidel, who led Hitler through conquered Paris at the time, became the highest military officer in the Bundeswehr. And Reinhard Gehlen, Hitler's former chief spy, became the Federal Republic's news chief and adviser on enemy issues. What remains is only the "Legend of the Wehrmacht that stayed clean".
