Arthur Wessel

Arthur Wessel is a Nazi commander who served under Eugene Ricci.

Occupation of Greece
Arthur Wessel was sent to Greece as part of Eugene Ricci's occupation force and conquered the city of Corinth. There, he built a base camp in a courtyard and placed five cannons there. He also captured Corinth's population to use them as a living shield to protect his cannons.

After the blockade was destroyed, Wessel was contacted by Ricci who ordered him to prevent the Allies from landing their troops. Wessel then commenced firing his cannons at the Allied transports and gunships. However, the gunships were able to land and he sent out a recon team to ascertain the Allies' plans for the attack. After learning that General Omar Kennedy was in charge and was moving, he ordered his men to release the starved jaguars upon the Allied troops. Despite the Allies defeating the wild animals, Josef saw that their ranks were thin.

Josef then prepared for the final attack, assuring Ricci that there was only a slight chance the Allies would win against him. Josef then led his tanks and soldiers against Commander Cameron Vers's troops. However, he was then informed by one of his men that Kennedy was freeing his hostages. Josef then fired at Kennedy, destroying the last cannon. Josef then held Kennedy at gunpoint, laughing and saying that he loses. However, Josef was attacked by his former prisoners, who pulled him out of his tank and then beat, burned and mutilated Josef to death.
