For the first time since Bruno had been promoted to a general position. He had not been invited to the Kaiser's palace to receive his latest promotion. Rather, he was standing within the Headquarters of the German Army's Central Division, saluting the German Kaiser with a stern expression on his face.
The Kaiser returned Bruno's salute. He seemed rather proud as he did so. And why wouldn't he be? Bruno was now only two ranks away from becoming a full fledged Field Marshal. And he was not even thirty yet.
Although, give him a year and he would be. Even so, to become a GeneralOberst at the age of 29, it was an achievement nobody had ever succeeded in obtaining prior to now. At least not in the German Army.
