Joachim von Kortzfleisch is a very interesting historical figure and signature to have! Very nice early war grouping!

Claus von Stauffenberg was a distant cousin of Joachim von Kortzfleisch! It didn’t stop there, after the assassination attempt on AH during the 20 July Plot (Operation Valkyrie), Kortzfleisch as commander of the Military District III (Berlin) even became involved in the Operation!
