Yeah, Heusinger was Hitler’s chief of staff temporarily when the actual chief of staff got sick. This became a significant event, because Hitler’s assassination attempt happened during that time. Heusinger was suspected of being part of the plot, but no evidence was found. After that, he didn’t have a senior post in the Nazi German Army.
Also he was appointed chair of NATO in 1960s, so significantly later than WW2.
Also he was apparently never a member of the nazi party nor did he take part in nazi atrocities.
I don’t understand what you’re trying to imply here. He was a senior military leader prior to Hitler’s assassination attempt, of course he participated in planning military operations.
A declassified CIA document about the general – which was made public in 2006 thanks to the Nazi War Crimes Disclosure Act – assures that he could have been involved in war crimes, since some of the orders he signed sealed the fate of several Russian political prisoners and allied commanders.

Nobody’s disagreeing that he worked for the military, they’re just saying he wasn’t the leader of the nazis.
Who’s spreading disinformation, when you’re making up new titles like “Hitler’s chief of staff” and “Chairman of NATO” about a person who’s been dead for 40 years?
Heusinger served as inspector general until 1961, when appointed chairman of NATO’s Military Committee—the organization’s senior military officer and chief military adviser to the secretary general. Source
I think people are mostly criticising your choice of words, The chairman of the NATO military committee does not equate to the chief of NATO. And simply labeling him as “chief of staff” implies that he was part of the executive, and not a military commander.
I could more accurately claim that Hitlers “chief of staff” Vincenz Müller became the Commander of the Soviet East German military. At least half of that statement is actually true.
There is no reason to participate in historical revisionism. We are still fighting against the"clean Wehrmacht" theory. Misrepresenting the white washing that’s already occurred just gives ammunition to those perpetuating it.

But hey, nice example of disinformation.

That he did have allegiance to the nazi party and he did take part in nazi atrocities.
I think neither your quote nor the text under the link show that. Can you elaborate?
Sure.
Why even link the articles when the man in question is not mentioned in any of them?
Wikipedia apparently does that by default now. Sorry. I’ll edit it.

Provide links. I did!
