    Unfortunately general Georg-Hans Reinhardt isn't a part of the show. It is reported that he never in his life made a mistake when speaking. Often his listeners were so focused on finding a grammatical or pronunciation error that they no longer noticed the content, but they were always disappointed.
    Reinhardt's daily order to the troops was set up by six officers and then two staff officers went over it before the draft was presented to him and he still always found shorter, punchier, more accurate formulations.

      I grew up in Germany in the 70s and 80s and early 90s. There's a difference even between German back then and German now. Not fundamentally so, but a lot of words have been adopted from English. I watch a lot of German news via RUclips and I've noticed sadly, that some Germans can't express themselves like we used to back then. So there will always be differences due to time in language.

    my descriptions of voices by voice type part 1
    Rommel: older tenor
    Guderian: slightly higher than Rommel
    von Manstien: high-pitched tenor (his biological father was a general from a Slavic ethnic group called the Kashubians, his adopted and biological fathers come from families with very long military histories)
    Keitel: slightly high pitched baritone (especially when he yells)
    Raeder: high-pitched tenor
    von Rundstedt: tenor
    Peiper: stereotypical sexy German movie villain (his voice type fitted as he was responsible for Malmedy)
    Skorzeny: bass (just after capture), basso profondo (post-war English speaking voice as he was talking about his life and the then-violent situation in Cuba, after all he was a very heavy smoker which deepened his voice and contributed to his death by lung cancer)
    Goring: high-pitched douchebag tenor
    Jodl: in between tenor and baritone
    Hausser: in between countertenor and high-pitched tenor (but still sounds like a douche)
    Kesselring: slightly lower pitched than Jodl
    Donitz: about the same range as Kesselring
    Paulus: low-pitched tenor (after Stalingrad, he worked with the Soviets)
    Milich: moderate pitched tenor (his mom's uncle was Jewish)

    I have no clue how a Swabian accent sounds, but I read in David Irving's "Trail Of The Fox," that Erwin Rommel used to shout, "A'greifen!" when ordering his troops to attack. I often wish I could hear it for myself.

      I found a small fragment of Röhm speaking, I've added him as 'bonus number 15' in my second video. Link: ruclips.net/video/bFqCV1FXD5s/видео.html

    Interesting, thanks for the upload. Also interesting that of the 15, only two of them spoke in a mild dialect. That was Kesselring, who sounds southern German with those rolled 'r's and maybe Skorzeny as well.. though he switches quickly to English and it's difficult to tell. The rest spoke more or less normal, educated German. I would have expected Manstein to have a deeper voice!

    Manstein's voice is by far the most shocking. It sounds like a teenage boy who hasn't reached puberty yet. At one point he sounded almost like a chipmunk, lol. All the more hillarious given how the picture of Manstein presented here is showing him smoking a cigar, whereas in reality this voice recording is taken of him from the Nuremberg trials. Also, Guderian's torso is built like a refrigerator, lol.

    It’s really crazy how different the way of talking is compared to nowadays. Nobody in Germany talks like that anymore. It’s not about the accent it’s more about the very thoughtful and skillful use of words. I would actually struggle to just come up with similar sentences on paper.

  • @crownprincesebastianjohano7069

    One can tell Rommel is used to speaking to military audiences. And while he assiduously courted the cameras and fame, he was not terribly comfortable in front of them in interview formats.
