Alexander Edler von Daniels (17 March 1891 – 6 January 1960) was a German general who fought in the Battle of Stalingrad. Daniels commanded the 376th Infantry Division at Stalingrad, which was part of XI Corps of the German Sixth Army. Despite the hardships facing his and many other soldiers, Daniels learned to make ways of entertainment in the ruins of the city. He played a game of target shooting with some of his officers for Oktoberfest, and played card games of Doppelkopf. In late December 1942, after Operation Uranus encircled the Sixth Army, Daniels was promoted to Lieutenant-General (Generalleutnant) and awarded the Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross. Daniels was marched into captivity by the Red Army on January 28, 1943, where he was interrogated by Captain Nikolay Dyatlenko.〔Beevor, Antony (1999).
