Moltke, H. von (English spelling)

…A.G. von Schlieffen, who served as Chief of the General Staff from 1891 to 1906, had devised a strategy for the outbreak of war: first move quickly against the French, destroy their main forces, then immediately attack the Russians, and complete the decisive battle in a short period of about six weeks, thus deciding the outcome of the war in one fell swoop. However, Schlieffen died in 1913, so the first Chief of the General Staff to actually lead the military in World War I was Helmuth von Moltke (1848-1916). He was the nephew of Helmuth von Moltke the Elder, who made his name in the Austro-Prussian and Franco-Prussian wars. …

From Moltke

His nephew Helmuth von Moltke (1848-1916), known as the Younger Moltke, also became Chief of the General Staff in 1906 and improved the Schlieffen Plan. [Yoshio Mochida] …
