Werner H. Von Rosenstiel

Born into landed Prussian nobility, Werner H. Von Rosenstiel lived the largely predictable life of his class until two great changes intersected to forever alter his worldview:  he attended college in Ohio for a year, and the Nazis came to power in Germany.  Von Rosenstiel was drafted into the Wehrmacht, the German army, and had finished his legal education when tthe rising tide of Nazi madness and his affection for an American girl in Cincinnati brought him to resolve to leave Gernmany and return to the United States.
