Karl Rudolf Gerd von Rundstedt (12 December 1875 – 24 February 1953) was a German Field Marshal (Generalfeldmarschall) during World War II. Posthumous reputation
Rundstedt was buried in full uniform in Hannover-Stöcken cemetery. But whether Rundstedt knew this was another matter and this question was later to figure prominently in the issue of whether to charge him with war crimes.
