Re: Blood and Iron
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!
God, Family, Kaiser, and Fatherland
Bruno's recovery was rather swift. And why wouldn't it be? The bullet had barely lodged itself in his flesh. The projectile was extracted, a stitch or two was applied, followed by some bandages. Which were tenderly replaced in a timely manner by Bruno's wife.
Sure, he had damn near died, and would have done so if he wasn't an alcoholic, but the wound itself which had been inflicted on him was minor. The near death incident came from the fact that had he not been wearing a thick and heavy wool greatcoat, with a steel flask in his breast pocket. Then the bullet most definitely would have pierced his heart and killed him.
Because of how Heidi reacted in an overly protective and almost motherly way. Bruno was quite literally forced to rest in bed by the woman, and to be tended to by her as if he were a sick child. While this had some appeal in its own right. Bruno honestly believed his beloved wife was overreacting.
