Michael Wittmann (April 22, 1914 - August 8, 1944) was a German SS-Hauptsturmführer (SS-Captain) during World War II.
Wittman's crews (chiefly gunner Balthasar "Bobby" Woll, also a Knight's Cross holder) are known to have destroyed at least 138 tanks and 141 artillery pieces, along with an unknown number of other armoured vehicles. Together with Johannes Bölter, Otto Carius and Kurt Knispel (the top scoring German panzer ace of the war with 168 confirmed tank kills) he is considered to be one of the greatest tank commanders in history.
He is famous for his June 13, 1944, ambush of elements of the British 7th Armoured Division's 22nd Armoured Brigade at the Battle of Villers-Bocage in a Tiger tank.

I customized Michael Wittmann sitting on a gun barrel of Tiger I Tank as the original his photo.

Enjoy it.
