Erich Ludendorff in uniform with his orders

Before a doorway with a carved relief at the left, Erich Ludendorff stands with a heavy, unmoving face, his white hair cropped short, in a buttoned uniform tunic with epaulettes, a cross at his collar and the breast covered with stars, crosses and a row of medals. Ludendorff, quartermaster general of the imperial army in 1916-1918 and a participant in Hitler's putsch of 1923, had since broken with him; on his seventieth birthday on 9 April 1935 he declined the rank of field marshal.
