Chapter 32:
November 5, 1938
Eastern Germany, 8th Military District, Breslau - Kreisau, Silesia Region For a change, I had left Berlin for the weekend and come to Kreisau, a small town in Silesia.
In the original history, this land would be lost along with East Prussia after World War II, but for now, it was still German territory.
I was at the Moltke family estate in Kreisau.
"Thank you for the wonderful meal, Count von Moltke."
The House of Moltke was the family of Imperial Chief of the General Staff Helmuth von Moltke, one of the founding fathers of the German Empire alongside Bismarck.
"Ah, on the contrary, it has been a delightful time for me, Captain Schacht. I hope we can maintain a good relationship."
The current head of the family, Count Helmuth James von Moltke, didn't seem much older than me.
Europeans tend to reuse the names of their more distinguished ancestors. So confusing.
