		General Werner von Fritsch, Commander-in-Chief of the German Army, was deeply troubled by the pace of the rearmament program.
		General von Fritsch estimated the probable French forces available for use on the Alpine frontier at approximately twenty divisions, so that a strong French superiority would still remain on the western frontier, with the role, according to the German view, of invading the Rhineland.
		In reply to considerations offered by Field Marshal von Blomberg and General von Fritsch regarding the attitude of Britain and France, the Führer repeated his previous statements that he was convinced of Britain's non-participation, and therefore he did not believe in the probability of belligerent action by France against Germany.

	Liddell Hart, B.H.
		Kurt von Schleicher was forced to become Chancellor in an attempt to undermine the National Socialists and assert the leadership of the Reichwehr in the Weimar Republic.
		Caught between Hitler and the senior generals, Blomberg was easily manipulated, "an illustration of how simple the pure soldier can be." (21) Hindenburg's appointment, on the advice of the senior generals, of Werner von Fritsch as commanding general of the army ensured even greater division.
		Assuming Blomberg's post as Commander in Chief of the Combined Forces, Hitler usurped the functions of the O.K.H. by building another general staff under his own control--the Oberkommando der Wehrmacht or O.K.W. --with a pliant Wilhelm Keitel as Chief of Staff.

		In January 1933 he reaped his reward when Hindenburg invited him to be chancellor of Germany, and he took office with the support of Papen and Hugenberg and with Field Marshal Werner von Blomberg as minister of defense.
		He now dispensed with the services of those who were not wholehearted in their acceptance of Nazi dynamism--Hjalmar Schacht, who declared Germany's further rearmament a danger to its economy; Werner von Blomberg and Werner von Fritsch, representatives of the caution of professional soldiers; and Konstantin von Neurath, Hindenburg's appointment at the foreign office.
