    Who was the best???

    Who do you guys think was the best panzar division and commander? I dont know alot about the diffrent units or there comanders. Maybe you guys can educate me a little about the diffrent one out there. Of course i know who Whittman was and i think his story is pretty amazing but i would like to get some info on some other guys. Was Whittman the guy whos tank took over 50 hits and keep fighting?

      Thats very true but i would like to hear about some other noteable warriors. I got a dress bayonet and it has a troddel that supost to attach it to the 4th pnzar company. I think all the tankers in that war were on the cutting edge.

        Herman Balk, commanding 11th Panzer on the Chir River during November '42-January, '43 is a compelling story. Read Panzer Battles for a good account.

            Thats easy Rommel and the AfrikaKorps, 21st Pz Div & 15 Pz Div, did the most with the least...
            Made it all the way to el Alamien with only 12 panzers still running

            Checkout Von Mellenthin's Panzer Battles, its on amazon etc.

                    The number at the end, thats the knocked-out tanks.
