Colonel Friedrich Adler stood at the window of his quarters, staring out into the dark. At 52, he was every inch the Prussian ideal, sharp jaw, piercing gray eyes, uniform pressed even in sleep. He was respected, feared, and utterly unreadable. Soldiers said he could calculate artillery ranges in his head faster than a map.
