This badass right here would be Colonel Claus Philipp Maria Justinian Schenk Graf von Stauffenberg - better known as Claus von Stauffenberg, one of the leaders behind the famous 20 July plot to kill Hitler. Of course, the attempt inevitably failed and he was executed by firing squad the following day. Cool side note: von Stauffenberg was third in line to be executed, with Lieutenant Werner von Haeften, a co-conspirator, fourth in line, but von Haeften placed himself between the firing squad and von Stauffenberg at the last minute, taking von Stauffenberg’s bullets for him.
Basically, the man tried to kill Hitler. And he could rock an eyepatch. And he was cute with his kids. AND, Tom Cruise played him in Valkyrie. Isn’t there some sort of rule that if Tom Cruise plays you in a movie, you’re attractive by default? Probably.
