Guderian was halted twice by his superiors 14th May and 17th May, ( leaving aside the Dunkirk halt order 24th May ), had his higher commanders not interfered and Guderian been allowed to go for broke would he have have reached Dunkirk before the BEF were prepared there ( as in OTL ).
Would Guderian have trapped the BEF if his Senior commanders had not wasted time with the 2 halt orders.
