GERMANY-DEFENCE-WWII-COMMEMORATION
German Chancellor Angela Merkel and German Defense Minister Franz Josef Jung review soldiers 3rd and 7th "Wachbataillon" of the German Bundeswehr during a swearing-in ceremony for new recruits in front of the Reichstag building which hosts the German parliament on July 20, 2009 in Berlin on the occasion of the 65th anniversary of the failed attempted assassination on Hitler on July 20, 1944. The July 20 plot saw aristocratic army officer Count Claus von Stauffenberg place a bomb at Hitler's headquarters in East Prussia, in present day Poland. Von Stauffenberg and several others were executed shortly afterwards in the courtyard of the Bendlerblock, still part of the defence ministry. AFP PHOTO DDP / MICHAEL KAPPELER GERMANY OUT
