Many were repelled by "this face that looked like an advertisement for a shaving lotion; this emptiness with the avid, frightened eyes; this sometimes slinking, sometimes hopping, never naturally moving form with its narrow shoulders [and] ridiculously correct suit"; this man who exhorted them "with all the semi-education of his age," using "miserable German . . . defective logic . . . tasteless humor . . . false pathos," and subjected them to "alternate whining and brutality...

If Hitler had not dominated the plan for attack on Russia, the German Army might have used an adaptation of the old Schlieffen strategy offered by General Marcks. The Marcks plan was to prepare a tremendous mass concentration in the Balkans, which the Russians might logically interpret as a move against Turkey. Then, without warning, the concentration could have been hurled against the Ukraine, with an ultimate wheeling turn toward Moscow up the valleys of the Dnieper...
