80 years ago His Trousers Were Singed



Under the codename ‘Operation Walkure’, 37-year-old would-be assassin of Adolf Hitler Claus von Stauffenberg places a bomb in the Fuhrer’s headquarters in an attempt to assassinate him in Wolfsschanze, Rastenburg, Ostpreußen, Germany.

Hitler survived the bomb attack with minor injuries. His trousers were singed and tattered and he suffered from a perforated eardrum.
