Re: Any ex-LW adviser for 1969 BofB film?
Michulec and Caldwell believe Galland was offered the post of Bundesluftwaffe Inspector (Commander), which he would not accept, but because of his activities during the war, and more importantly because of 'unsavoury connotations associated with his illegal flight to Argentina', his appointment to head the Bundesluftwaffe, which he wanted, was politically unacceptable. So it went to the safe Josef Kammhuber.
On the matter of taming the army, it was surely only FDR and Churchill's 'Unconditional Surrender' that achieved this for Hitler and Goebbels. If the Allies had offered peace terms, Hitler would have been liquidated in 1943.
