======================== EDIT IN PROGRESS ==========================
German General during WWII. Joined the army in 1920. During World War Two, he served in the Eastern Front with the Panzer divisions. In 1945 with the Soviet troops ready to take Berlin, Walther was promoted to General (making him the youngest General in Germany) and was ordered to build up the final defenses for Berlin. Even though his troops fought hard against the Soviet troops in Berlin, Walther ordered his men to escape and surrender to the American and British troops instead of the Soviet troops. Released from prison in 1947. Walther Wenck died in a car crash.
