The Battle of Castle Itter

The Battle for Castle Itter on May 5, 1945, is notable not just for the strange alliance, but for the precise roles within it. The German defenders were not Nazi loyalists, but Wehrmacht troops under Major Josef Gangl who had defected to the Austrian resistance. They specifically chose to fight their SS countrymen to protect the prisoners. The French captives, including former Prime Ministers Édouard Daladier and Paul Reynaud, were not passive hostages; they actively took up arms in the defense.
