Panzer ace (tank ace) is a contemporary term used in English-speaking popular culture to describe highly decorated German tank ("panzer") commanders and crews during World War II. While the concept was not prevalent within the Wehrmacht, it was common in the Waffen-SS to reward its most successful personnel, as the organisation was far more attuned to the propaganda imperatives of Nazi Germany. These commanders were credited with the destruction of large numbers of tanks and other armoured vehicles. The British and American militaries did not recognise the concept of "tank ace," though many commanders and crews were also responsible for destroying a large number of enemy tanks.
