Who said this?

Question

"Dont tickle,smash!"

Also,can anyone clear up for me the difference between motorized and mechanized infantry?

Answer 1

Heinz W. Guderian, in summarizing the German war style called the Blitzkreig said "Nicht kleckern, klotzen!" - translated as "Don't' tickle, smash!"

The two terms Motorized and mechanized mean about the same thing. Motorized was used in WWII when soldiers were being ferried about by motorized transport. As more and more WEAPONS were turned into moving items themselves, the term MECHANIZED became used to cover the vast and growing segment of militaria.

Answer 2

no idea on the quote

but i'm sure that the difference b/w motorized and mechanized is all abt armor.
Mechanized infantry : armored personnel carriers (APCs) infantry fighting vehicles.(Stryker,Warrior IFV,M2 Bradley.)

Motorised infantry:soft-skinned" trucks or jeeps(Humvee,Land Rover Wolf,Logistics Vehicle System)

Answer 3

The above answer on your quote is correct.

Mechanized forces are infantry in tracked vehicles. This tends to meant that they are usually armoured and usually grouped with tanks and Self-propelled artillery.

Motorized forces are infantry in wheeled vehicles. They can be soft skinned like trucks or armoured like BRDMs or BTRs

Answer 4

Heinz Wilhelm Guderian (17 June 1888 – 14 May 1954)


Klotzen nicht kleckern ('clout, don't dribble'), as the Germans would say or “Klotzen nicht Kleckern” he used to say: “Don't feel with the fingers but hit with the fist.”


General Guderians 1937 book: "Actung Panzer!"
colloquial Klotzen nicht kleckern, an untranslatable
phrase usually rendered in English as “boot ‘em, don't spatter ‘em,” Heinz Guderian, the German panzer general: Klotzen, nicht Kleckern! — “Smash! ..don't sprinkle".

Guderian drückte dasselbe drastischer aus: "Nicht kleckern, sondern klotzen!" German idiom nicht kleckern, sondern klotzen
to do things in a big way not to take half-measures. Still in common usage. Not a military term in German!

Motorized is without heavy armor, simple, trucks vert armored troop carriers.

Answer 5

Motorized infantry rides in wheeled vehicles (trucks).

Mechanized infantry rides/fights in tracked armored fighting vehicles (AFVs) or armored personnel carriers (APCs).
