	Heinz Guderian
		Guderian was appointed commander of a motorized battalion in 1930.
		Guderian was shocked by the stout resistance of the Red Army and as the severe Russian winter set in he made a limited withdrawal to better defensive ground.
		Guderian was unable to repeat earlier successes and in July 1943 lost one of the largest tank battles in history at Kursk.

	B. H. Liddell Hart, Heinz Guderian, Kenneth MacKsey, Constatine Fitzgibbon, General Heinz Guderian - Panzer Leader - ...
		Guderian's desire to be given a free hand to drive deep and fast into the enemy after the breakthrough at Sedan in France in 1940 is constantly hampered by the timidity and nervousness of the high command at the speed of his advance.
		Guderian favours an all-out offensive on Moscow, instead however the axis of the advance is shifted southwards towards the strategically less important objective of Kiev, an offensive that eats up time, men and material.
		Guderian expresses little regret or remorse for his part in the Second World War and there is predictably a strict bias in favour of his homeland, which is undiminished by time or any post-war realisation of the diabolical nature of Hitler and the Nazi regime.

		Heinz Guderian was born in 1888 at Chulm, on the Vistula, in Poland.

		Guderian noted: 'up to this point we have had tank superiority, but this is no longer the case!' He urgently requested that a commission be sent to study the T-34 and incorporate its features into future German designs.

	Cloggie :: Booklog :: Achtung - Panzer!
		Guderian starts by analysing why in 1914 the German offensive bogged down in positional or trench warfare and how once trenches were in place, the infantry was nearly powerless to break through.
		Guderian both looks at the development of the tanks themselves as well as the tactics the allies came up with as to their deployment.
		Guderian after all had to state his case clearly, had to show exactly how he came to this conclusions to be able to convince his readers.

	Achtung Panzer! - Heinz Guderian!

		In 1946, Guderian was imprisoned in Allendorf and Neustadt (Hessen) but in 1948, he was released.

		Panzer!, was written in 1936-37 as an explanation of Guderian's theories on the Tank and aircraft's role in modern warfare.
		Guderian's Panzer group led the "race to the sea" that encircled the bulk of the Allied armies.
		Despite Soviet and Polish government protests, Guderian was not charged with any war crimes during the Nuremberg Trials, as his actions and behavior were considered consistent with that of a professional soldier.

	Copyright
		Nor does Guderian mention that originally he had selected a much larger estate, but this request was denied as excessive and a bad precedent, given that individuals more prominent than Guderian also were to receive estates.
		Instead, he stresses Guderian's insistence that Moscow be the primary strategic objective and the Generaloberst's disappointment that his armored group was diverted south to the massive encirclement battle around Kiev in August and September 1941.
		However, there is room to question Guderian's narrative here.[14] Guderian's receipt of the coveted Oak Leaves to the Iron Cross on July 17, 1941 and the subsequent placement of more divisions under his command may have assuaged his objections to Hitler's plan.

	Heinz Guderian
		Son of a Prussian General, Guderian was commissioned into the Tenth Hanoverian Jäger Battalion in 1908 after attending the War School at Metz, but spent WO I as a signal and then a staff officer.
		One thing Guderian was worried about was the raising of tank brigades for close co-operation with infantry divisions, as employment of tanks merely in support of unmechanized infantry was a reversion to the practice of 1916-18.
		Guderian also designed humorous booklets to replace the usual stodgy manuals for tank crews, which were written in everyday soldier's slang and covered every aspect of maintenance and life aboard a tank, cartoons and multiple 'do's and don'ts' for each crew member.

		General Guderian's book is certainly not for the WWII reader who wants a style like that of Ambrose or Ryan, but it does deliver on sheer content and insight from one of the greatest military minds of the second world war.
		Guderian is quite humble in his writing considering he was the primary driving force behind development of Germany's Blitzkreig warfare.
		Guderian was dismissed after the failure of the German army at the gates of Moscow in 1941 but his talents could not even be overlooked by Hitler and after further set backs were encountered was recalled to service in 1943.

	Marine Corps Gazette (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
		As interesting as the story of Heinz Guderian is, the author has embellished and exaggerated his story, already well-promoted by Guderian himself, and added a fawning, gushy style that convinces me that he has lapsed into a sheer hagiography of a man he admires without limit.
		Guderian led his Panzerkorps against Polish infantry and cavalry in September 1939 and French reservists in May, defeating one thrust by the greenest French armored division (Charles DeGaulle’s 4th Armored Division) before reaching the channel in echelon with the other corps of Panzer Group Kleist.
		Guderian was one of the few motor transport officers of the 1920s and combined with his signals experience of World War I, he surely imparted technical improvements to the evolution of the mechanized forces, but can we be so sure of the tactical elements?

		The Marcia Guderian Trio is performing at the level where a band can make a mark on the local or even regional circuit.

	Heinz Guderian - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In the Second World War Guderian first served as the commander of the XIX Army Corps in the invasion of Poland and the invasion of France.
		Guderian would forever deny that he did anything of the sort, and it seems that, indeed, he did not.
		Guderian's own view on he matter was that he was victimised by Kluge and at some point abused Kluge to the point of provoking him into challenging him to duel, which Hitler fortunately forbade.

		Guderian's business was war, and he writes about the military side of war with a fullness and clarity that military historians will be grateful for.
		If Guderian is to be believed, he alone stood up to Hitler, begging him to be satisfied with limited objectives, finally demanding a withdrawal in Russia and an armistice with the West.
		Guderian agrees that Hitler alone ran the war; Himmler, Göring and Goebbels feared him as much as did the generals.

	::Blitzkrieg::
		Blitzkrieg was first used by the Germans in World War Two and was a tactic based on speed and surprise and needed a military force to be based around light tank units supported by planes and infantry (foot soldiers).
		When Guderian told Hitler that he could reach the French coast in weeks if an attack on France was ordered, fellow officers openly laughed at him.
		General Busch said to Guderian, "Well, I don’t think that you’ll cross the River Meuse in the first place." The River Meuse was considered France’s first major line of defence and it was thought of as being impossible to cross in a battle situation.

		After serving mainly as a staff officer in World War I, Guderian remained in the army and became interested in armoured warfare.
		Unlike most of his reform-minded contemporaries in other armies, Guderian found a sympathetic supporter in his commander in chief, Hitler.
		Designated chief of Germany's mobile troops in November 1938, Guderian proved the soundness of his theories in the Polish campaign of September 1939 and spearheaded the drive to the French coast of the English Channel (May 1940) that eliminated France from the war.

	Amazon.com: Guderian: Panzer General (Greenhill Military Paperbacks.): Books: Kenneth Macksey (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
		Macksey relies far too much on Guderian's memoir, Panzer Leader (1953), offers a few letters between Guderian and his wife as the fruit of the "extensive Guderian family archives." The rest of his sources are near-obsolete ones, like John Wheeler-Bennett's 1953 Nemesis of Power.
		Guderian's role in WW II is well known and heavily studied in myriads of books and there are also his own memoirs which give many details of his thoughts and actions.
		Macksey makes clear the manner in which Guderian distillated the ideas of Fuller and his Tank Corps contemporaries: the true pioneers of Armoured warfare, and formed them into a practical and workable whole which secured for Germany her early victories and produced a formula for war still employed today as evinced by the Gulf War.
