Hans Krebs

Hans Krebs (4 March 1898 - 1 May 1945) was a German general of infantry who served during World War II.

Life/Role in Downfall
Krebs was born in Helmstedt. He volunteered for service in the Imperial German Army in World War I in 1914, promoted to lieutenant in 1915, and rose up the ranks until he became a General of Infantry

As World War II ended, he made a telephone call on April 28 to Keitel, and informed him that if relief didn't come within 48 hours, all was loss. He was among the people to court-martial Hermann Fegelein after Himmler negotiated surrender.

A day after Hitler commited suicide, and after negotiating with the Soviets, he, along with Burgdorf, commited suicide as well.

In the Parody Universe
Krebs is known as the "map pointer" because it's his job to point the map of Berlin. He takes great pride in his map pointing skills and is extremely annoyed whenever anyone interrupts his pointing demonstrations, or when Fegelein tells him to point maps. In many parodies he appears to have a map fetish.

Krebs is more scared of Hitler than Jodl and Burgdorf and so, when the time comes to inform Hitler about the latest misfortune to have befallen the bunker, he attempts to tell Hitler but then loses confidence, letting Jodl tell the bitter truth in the end.

One of the more likeable characters in the bunker, he is also the life partner of future ranter extraordinaire, Wilhelm Burgdorf.

His Stalin Parody Counterpart is Kliment Vorshilov, who rivals Krebs with his map pointing skills.
