Michael Wittmann

Michael Wittmann was a German Waffen-SS tank commander during the Second World War. He is known for his ambush of elements of the British 7th Armored Division during the Battle of Villers-Bocage on 13 June 1944. While in command of a Tiger I tank, Wittmann allegedly destroyed up to 14 tanks, 15 personnel carriers and two anti-tank guns within 15 minutes before the loss of his own tank. The news was disseminated by Nazi propaganda and added to Wittmann's reputation.
Wittmann became a cult figure after the war thanks to his accomplishments as a panzer ace, part of the portrayal of the Waffen-SS in popular culture. Historians have mixed opinions about his tactical performance in battle. Some praised his actions at Villers-Bocage, while many others found his abilities lacking, and the praise for his tank kills overstated.
Although the number is disputed, he is credited with destroying 135 to 138 enemy tanks.

Small thoughts on the Hussite way of fighting

The Crusaders were mostly mercenaries who, even after payment, were not more interested in winning the battle. They were mainly interested in the salary. And if they run away from the fight, someone will want to hire them for another campaign. Therefore, some heroic throwing into a lost battle had no meaning for them.
