How Paulus Betrayed Hitler | Suzdal Camp Part III
Third part in the "Suzdal Camp" series dealing with German officers captured at Stalingrad.
In July 1944, Operation Bagration destroys Army Group Centre in Belarus. Thousands of German prisoners, including generals, are marched through the streets of Moscow.
These are now joining the other generals captured at Stalingrad months ago, in Suzdal Camp 160. The news of this crushing defeat followed by the failed Hitler assassination attempt plunges the German POWs in bewilderment. One and a half years after his capture at Stalingrad, Field Marshal Paulus is still uncertain about which side he's on. Actually he is the last one still wondering: most of the captured German generals have turned against Hitler by this time. And he will eventually do the same after many difficult reflections. The consequences of the July plot against the Fuehrer and the persecutions of his family will decide Paulus to definitely turn against his former leader.
