There is this stupid stereotype, that all WW2 Germans worshipped Hitler and happily committed all kinds of war crimes and genocide without ever questioning their orders. Heinz Guderian outright refused to follow the criminal orders, at the end they didn't even bother sending him new ones. In his book Guderian tells how he went face to face with Hitler and fought with him for hours to get some sense into Führer. According to Guderian, Hitler lived in an illusion and absolutely didn't care if thousands or millions of his own soldiers froze to death without any reason.
Heinz Guderian wasn't just one of the greatest generals of his time, but also an honest man during an era of chaos and murder. And he stood against the devil himself.
