Gunther Adolf Ferdinand von Kluge (30 October 1882 - 19 August 1944), also known as Hans Gunther von Kluge, was a German field marshal during World War II who held commands on both the Eastern and Western Fronts. He commanded the 4th Army of the Wehrmacht during the invasion of Poland in 1939 and the Battle of France in 1940. His command on the Eastern Front lasted until October 1943 when Kluge was badly injured in a car accident. Although Kluge was not an active conspirator in the 20 July plot, in the aftermath of the failed coup he committed suicide on 19 August 1944.
