This was supposed to be my Valkyrie entry. But I could not get Graf Claus von Stauffenberg sized to the car correctly. 'A giant among men" May he be remembered and honoured.

I hadn't known it was called operation Valkyrie. Just read up on it because you said Stauffenberg and Valkyrie so was curious. Cool idea.
