Karl Wagner is a disgruntled middle-aged instructor at the Bundeswehr Command and Staff College. He finds himself concerned about the direction which the German nation is headed in—just as he is killed by a terrorist attack. Only to awaken and find himself reborn as an infant, Bruno von Zehntner, the youngest son of a noble family renowned for its part in the German war industry a few years after the founding of the German Empire. Bruno, as he is now known, desires to rewrite history and ensure the German Empire emerges victorious in the coming century. And in doing so, finds himself entrenched in a world filled with Blood and Iron!
While the first stop on his brief visit to the Fatherland was the shipyards in Hamburg, Bruno made sure to make his way home after business had been concluded.
The introduction of his new landing craft could ensure minimal casualties were spent gaining control over Gallipoli, a campaign that in his past life had been utterly disastrous for the allied forces that landed in the peninsula.
And while his people worked behind the scenes to get the vehicles adopted by the Kaiserliche Marine, Bruno had very little to do with his time, and thus returned to Berlin for a brief visit to his wife and children.
Heidi having contacts in Military intelligence was all too aware that her husband was coming home, and thus made sure herself, and the children were presentable outside the doors of their home as they waited in the courtyard for the arrival of the head of their house.
