The count has been in the bad graces of the Nazi party ever since it first came into power.

He was freed, however, because he was so popular with the German people. His home still is behind the German lines. Luckner toured the United States in the 1920s as a goodwill ambassador and still carries with him a bulky scrapbook containing autographs of various personages to prove he is a good-wilier.
