These notes and memories of three senior staff officers about their activities at the German headquarters offer an insight into an important military leadership body during the First World War. Hans von Haeften served under Chiefs of Staff Falkenhayn and Hindenburg from 1914 to 1918. From August 1916, Hermann Mertz von Quirnheim headed the “Balkans” department at the General Staff. Wilhelm Heye only came to the Grand Headquarters in 1918; He was head of the army command until 1930.
