On the evening of July 20th, at the Southern Army Group Command Headquarters in Prosen.
General Sheeplin had not waited for the arrival of Major General Adel Schultz, commander of the 8th Armored Division. Instead, several commanders of the Armored Grenadier Divisions had come.
The five division commanders, bristling with fury, entered the headquarters and then froze upon seeing both Marshal Geron and General Sheeplin standing before a map table.
Marshal Geron pointed to General Sheeplin, "You may not yet know that General Sheeplin has been promoted to commander of the Southern Army Group. I haven't left yet because I want to help him complete the handover successfully. If you have any issues, take them up with the general."
