When the 80th US Infantry Division advanced in an encircling movement from the south towards Kassel in the first days of April, German soldiers blew up the Fulda bridges. According to a contemporary witness report by the defense, court and orderly officer Dirk Uhse at the time, he became the commander of the "fortress Kassel", Colonel General Johannes Erxleben, on the night of April 3rd, 1945 as a parliamentarian American troops stationed on the southern outskirts of the city with the task of obtaining free withdrawal for the Wehrmacht units located in Kassel, but at least for the civilian population. When the American general refused and announced that "the fight would either be surrendered or the fighting would continue", Uhse decided - without consulting Erxleben - to surrender. Major General Erxleben was taken prisoner, from which he was released on June 6, 1947.

Kapitän zur See Lothar von Arnauld de la Perière

Lothar von Arnauld de la Perière as a Kapitän zur See. Lothar (18 March 1886 – 24 February 1941) was born in Posen (now Poznań, Poland) and of French-German descent, was a German U-boat commander during World War I. With 194 ships and 453,716 gross register tons (GRT) sunk, he is the most successful submarine captain ever! His victories came in the Mediterranean, almost always using his 8.8-cm deck gun. During his career he fired 74 torpedoes, hitting 39 times. Arnauld de la Perière remained in the German Navy (Reichsmarine) after the war ended. During World War II, he was recalled to active duty as a Vizeadmiral (rear admiral), and was killed in a plane crash near Paris in 1941 while taking part in secret negotiations with the Vichy French government.

Generalmajor z.V. Oskar Prinz von Preußen

Oskar Karl Gustav Adolf Prinz von Preußen (27 July 1888 – 27 January 1958) was the fifth son of Wilhelm II, German Emperor and Augusta Victoria of Schleswig-Holstein-Sonderburg-Augustenburg. During the 1930s, when the Hohenzollern family attempted to test the waters for a return to power through Nationalist Socialism, Oskar appears to have played along, and eventually was commissioned as Generalmajor zur Verfügung (rank equivalent to brigadier general, "available for assignment"), circa March 1, 1940. As the family fell out of favor with Hitler (with the exception of Oskar’s middle brother, August Wilhelm), it became evident that there would be no restoration of the monarchy through the Nazis. With the early battlefield deaths of Oskar’s son (also named Oskar, killed in Poland, September 1939) and his nephew (Wilhelm, son of the Crown Prince, died of wounds received in France, May 1940) the German people harbored a newfound sentiment for the royal family amidst the totalitarian regime that was Nazi Germany. As a consequence, the majority of royals serving in the German Armed Forces appear to have had their commissions canceled, including Prinz Oskar.
