This document, signed by Montgomery and five German officers, ended fighting in the Netherlands, northern Germany and Denmark
-
When a German delegation arrived at Field Marshal Bernard Montgomery's mobile Tactical Headquarters (TAC HQ) on 3 May 1945, Karl Dönitz was notably absent. As the new German leader, he believed a meeting with a field marshal was below him.
The delegation looked out over the rolling hills of Lüneburg Heath, 35 miles (56km) southeast of Hamburg and onto the swathes of territory lost to the Allies. Montgomery soon came out to join them, making no efforts to hide his disdain. He immediately launched a tirade, asking each man: “Who are you?” before responding: “I've never heard of you.”
