Non-notable nobody. Fails WP:BIO. Fails Google test. Delete GreenJoe 20:45, 11 April 2008 (UTC)


 * Keep Last living General of the Wehrmacht is in fact notable, as is being Inspector General of the Bundeswehr. That said it does need rewriting. TallNapoleon (talk) 20:59, 11 April 2008 (UTC)


 * Strong keep per TallNapoleon. Additionally, the number of notable awards and honors alone satisfies WP:BIO.  Anturiaethwr (talk) 21:07, 11 April 2008 (UTC)


 * Is this nomination even meant to be taken seriously? Olaus (talk) 21:09, 11 April 2008 (UTC)


 * Comment I only started this article recently. By no means do I consider this article finished. I felt that I had to add the most essential notable facts fast as it was nominated for speedy deletion. Heinrich Trettner is sometimes also called Heinz Trettner for those that rely on google.

 * Strong keep This man held the top military post for his country for several years. "The person has received a notable award or honor, or has been often nominated for them" is a criteria for notability for any position: the guy seems to have received several honors and awards, aside from the notable honor of being made the top military officer for his country.

 * Speedy Keep Article needs a lot of work, but notability is definitely established for having been a general in the first place, let alone the last living general of a now defunct military. Mister Senseless&trade; (Speak - Contributions) 00:57, 12 April 2008 (UTC)
