OTD July 20, 1944. 79 years ago operation “Valkyrie” took place and ultimately failed in its attempt to assassinate Adolf Hitler.
more people died in Europe in the following months of WWII compared to the 5 previous years combined leading up to this point.
Endless possibilities and scenarios we will never know if the assassination and the coup d'état was successful.
A Few things we can be sure of are… D-Day, operation “market garden” and the “Battle of the Bulge” in Bastogne all would’ve been avoided.
“Valkyrie” Brilliant film with Tom Cruise (and I’m not the biggest Tom Cruise fan) well worth checking out.
