You should accept ''von Paulus''. I'd even argue that you should not accept just ''Paulus''.

"Many English-language sources and publications from the 1940s to the present day give Paulus' family name the prefix "von"...This is incorrect, as Paulus' family was never part of the nobility."

Most people don't. Which is why I hate seeing people talk about Nazi Germany on social forums cause I damn well know that person doesn't know shit outside a few memes and a documentary. Nazi Germany and it's rise is very complex with many factors and people that played a part in it, it's really interesting once you get into it. The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich by William Shirer is an excellent place to start.

Questions in the third column I knew a lot while I hardly know any Commanders of Wehrmacht.

Could you please accept "Reichskristallnacht" for "Kristallnacht"?

Göring also was a minister, so he should appear in the middle column, too.
