When it comes to the German panzer corps during World War II, the SS panzer division and the wehrmacht panzer division are indeed very different, but who is stronger? To look at two stages, such as the French campaign in 1940, the 7th Panzer Division and the 10th Panzer Division of the German Wehrmacht were the most dazzling, and played a decisive role in bypassing the French Maginot Line strategic interspersed from the Ardennes Forest, the record of the German SS Panzer Division at that time was not as dazzling as the total number of other units was still in the construction stage, so in the French campaign, the Wehrmacht Panzer Division was mainly responsible for the main attack, and the SS Panzer Corps was responsible for assisting in the battlefield and doing some dirty work at the same time, such as killing and setting fires in the name of catching guerrillas. Maintainers of law and order, etc., are equivalent to gendarmerie units.
But beginning with the German blitzkrieg against the Soviet Union in 1941, the Panzer Division of the 1st SS Panzer Division "Adolf Hitler's Flag Guard", then known as the SS First Panzergrenadier Division, began to be invincible in the Soviet theater as a forward wherever it went, and the division was officially reorganized into a real Panzer Division in 1944, which could also be called Hitler's Royal Forest Army at that time due to its long background and reputation as the first SS.
This was followed by the German SS 2nd "Reich" Panzer Division, which participated in the largest siege of Kiev in human history after joining the battlefield as an Imperial Motorized Infantry Division in 1941, annihilating the enemy at a cost of less than 4,000 people, 50,000 enemy soldiers to help annihilate the enemy captives reached 750,000, and then reorganized into the SS Reich Panzergrenadier Division in 1942, which was formally reorganized into the SS Second "Reich" Panzer Division in the early stages of the Battle of Kursk in 1943, and as of 1944, Regardless of the record from 1944 to 1945, the division destroyed more than 3,000 Soviet armored targets and was conservatively estimated to be the most feared soviet unit on the Eastern Front at that time, often with one division holding back three Soviet tank armies.
The third SS "skeleton" panzer division, is also a German army with a profound historical background, in 1941 the division joined the battlefield as the SS skeleton guard infantry division, from 1941 to 1942 the German SS "skeleton" guard infantry division, can be described as a relatively unlucky unit, successively surrounded by the Soviet army and bloody breakthrough, is regarded as the most tenacious german SS unit in the eastern front at that time, can fight hard and bloody battles, The division was officially reorganized into the Second SS Panzergrenadier Division in the early summer of 1942 during a break in France, and then continued to fight the Soviets on the Eastern Front, officially reorganized into the SS Third "Skeleton" Panzer Division in October 1943, and in 1944 the Poles launched the Warsaw Uprising, which happened to be secretly stationed near Warsaw, and was ordered by Hitler to suppress it, and then the German Third "Skeleton" Panzer Division, killing Red Eye in the city, slaughtered as many as 250,000 people in Warsaw. Injuries and missing are not counted. It was eventually called the Blood Skull. The division was one of the most serious war crimes committed by the SS units.
German SS 5th Viking Panzer Division, which was formed as the 5th SS "Viking" when it entered the Soviet Union in 1941 The Motorized Infantry Division numbered about 19,000 men, and one of its most famous battles was the Battle of Cherkaser Steel, which allowed most friendly units to break through due to tenacious fighting, and was later described by German soldiers on the Eastern Front as a place with Vikings, and there was hope of a living breakthrough, which was officially reorganized by Germany in early 1944 into the German 5th Viking Panzer Division, which was also a unit with a large number of foreign personnel in the SS unit.
The SS 12th "Hitler Youth" Panzer Division, whose members were mostly composed of German fanatical youth under the age of 20, became famous in the Bloody Battle of Caen in Normandy in 1944, with the assistance of the remnants of the Wehrmacht's 21st Panzer Division, resisted the repeated attacks of nearly 500,000 Allied troops, which lasted for more than a month, and was known as the Battle of German Extinction, after which the German army could be said to have retreated all the way to the German border on the Western Front.
The main reason why the SS troops are so strong on the battlefield is that the SS is almost Hitler's personal armed forces, no general in the Wehrmacht has the right to dispatch, Hitler gives priority to all the most advanced equipment for the SS troops with excellent results, which also makes them stronger and stronger, Hitler paid little attention to the Wehrmacht Panzer Division after 1942, most of the excellent records of the SS Panzer Division were covered by the glory of the SS Panzer Division, but the Wehrmacht Panzer Division also had elite, such as the German 11th Panzer Division, The 130 panzer instructors of the Wehrmacht, the Greater German Panzer Division, the 7th Panzer Division, the First Panzer Division of the Wehrmacht, etc., speaking of which we have to mention the German 21st Panzer Division, the 116th Panzer Division, etc. raised by the wehrmacht, the Wehrmacht has about 300 divisions, the SS divisional units of all branches are more than 40, and the Wehrmacht has about 300 divisions that are innocent and self-made, fighting for the freedom and dignity of Germany. Instead of creating horrific massacres and the destruction of the world's personality, as the fanatical SS did. Hitler's obstinate behavior eventually caused the Wehrmacht to defect one after another, hastening the collapse of the fascist group dominated by Hitler.
In the insistence on resisting the fascist clique, many wehrmacht superior officers were persecuted, especially the famous field marshal in German history who was forced to commit suicide, this person was Marshal Rommel, commander of the Wehrmacht Panzer Corps, with the rank of general of the German first class panzer corps.
