Heinz Guderian (1888-1954) was born in Kulm, West Prussia (now Chełmno, Poland). His family, like many Prussian’s, were historically landed gentry and lawyers with his father being the only soldier with whom he was closely related. Guderian, being the son of a soldier, moved around fairly extensively during his youth until he himself joined the military in 1907.

Heinz Guderian Heinz Guderian was the father of a world changing military strategy that used rapid advancing armored units in World War II. He pushed hard for the idea that tanks should not only be used to support infantry but should be the “speerspitze” or spearhead of the German armed forces (Alexander pg 31).
