Who did Kleist often disagree with on strategic decisions during the war?
Adolf Hitler
Heinz Guderian
Erwin Rommel
Karl Dönitz
Answer
Although a dedicated Nazi, Kleist often disagreed with Adolf Hitler on strategic decisions during the war. This was due to Kleist's belief in a more conventional approach to warfare, which focused on a slow and methodical advance. Hitler, on the other hand, favoured a more aggressive and risky approach, which often resulted in heavy casualties.
