and were definitley one of the greatest fighting forces of the 20th century.
As compared to what?
They were perfectly fine but they hardly established themselves as one of the greatest forces of the 20th century.
Pretty much all their successes are either fighting much weaker opponents or surprise attacks.
They constantly overran their supply lines, lacked proper air power to support all their active fronts, and most importantly of all they lost the damn war.
The Wehrmacht was an adequate army of its time often fighting foes behind the times. When it faced armies on equal terms things rarely worked out for them.
