<Li> Long Service Cross (18 years) </Li> <Li> Iron Cross First Class (German Empire) </Li> <P> The Captain has been portrayed in various adaptations of his family's life such as The Sound of Music, both the 1965 film and the Broadway musical, as well as two German films, The Trapp Family (1956) and The Trapp Family in America (1958). However, these adaptations often altered the portrayal of the Captain . In real life and in the memoir "The Story of the Trapp Family Singers", written by his second wife Maria Augusta Trapp, the Captain has been described as being a warm and loving father who was always around. The Captain was portrayed in a more negative light in many adaptations though . For instance, in the 1965 film, Georg von Trapp was portrayed as a disciplinary man who always went away and did not care for his children or their feelings at the beginning of the film . This change occurred in order to try and convince audiences that having an ideal American family is best due to women beginning to get an education and employment as a result of the introduction of the birth control pill in 1960 . </P>
