The Anti-Fascist Committee for a Free Germany (German: Antifaschistisches Komitee Freies Deutschland, or AKFD) was an organization of former Wehrmacht soldiers modeled after the National Committee for a Free Germany. The organization was formed in German-occupied Greece during the last months of the German occupation of the country and lasted from August to December 1944. Falk Harnack and Gerhard Reinhardt were two of its co-founders.[1]
