  Also Heusinger was Hitler’s chief of staff temporarily when the actual chief of staff got sick. This became a significant event, because Hitler’s assassintation attempt happened during that time. Heusinger was suspected of being part of the plot, but no evidence was found. After that, he didn’t have a senior post in the Nazi German Army.

  Also he was appointed chair of NATO in 1960s, so significantly later than WW2.

  Also he was apparently never a member of the nazi party nor did he take part in nazi atrocities.

  But hey, nice example of disinformation.

    Heusinger accompanied the field staff and assisted in the planning of operations for the invasions of Poland, Denmark, Norway, and France and the Low Countries.

    But hey, nice example of disinformation.

      I don’t understand what you’re trying to imply here.

        That he did have allegiance to the nazi party and he did take part in nazi atrocities.

      Why even link the articles when the man in question is not mentioned in any of them?

        Wikipedia apparently does that by default now. Sorry. I’ll edit it.

  Technically he was 3rd in command at the OKH from August 1940 to 1943 when he became second in command and finally head of the OKH when Kurt Zeitzler had a mental breakdown in June 1944.

  After the war he testified at Nuremburg and became an advisor for the new West German government in 1950, officially getting a military advisor position in 1955.

  So, longer than two weeks.
