Studio Color Pictures of Heinz Guderian


Studio portrait of Generaloberst Heinz Guderian which was taken in 1943, not long after Hitler appointed him as Generalinspekteur der Panzertruppen (General-Inspection of Panzer Troops). The photographer is Walter Frentz. In February of 1943 - after Stalingrad - he was recalled as Generalinspekteur der Panzertruppen, responsible for modernizing of the German armored troops. He quickly formed a good relationship with Albert Speer, the Minister for Armament and Ammunition and both were able to dramatically increase the rate of Panzers build per month, also many corrections to the Panzers were made by Guderian in person, who traveled relentlessly around factories and shooting ranges.
