As for Stauffenberg's bomb. There needed to be a conspirator there for it to have a chance to work. If he was actually there it would have had an even greater chance of success. It also had to be on the right time schedule. Abe was able to choose early, on time or late for the meeting schedule.

Abe chose early. The wolves were talking about going on time but Schmidty came up with a gut call by chosing early. That was huge.

Lathum set his bomb day one. There also needed to be a conspirator on that location to allow it to work. Since there was a large enough list in Berlin the night it went off the victim list was greater, including an conspirator who was given the option of just how much he wanted to effect the results of the bomb without knowing if Hitler was even in the blast.
