The 21st Panzer Division is the main enemy in the Taking Command! and a minor unit in Colditz Castle, and is where General Wetherby first displays his inability to command while in North Africa. While sneaking past, Wetherby attacks their front and is almost completely destroyed. In Kasserine Pass, they later attack Kasserine but fail and are completely destroyed or falls back. In Colditz Castle, they are easily destroyed by the attacking tanks under General Sheridan's command and the 89th.
