Reinhard Günzel (born April 5, 1944, The Hague) is a former German general. He was commander of the Kommando Spezialkräfte until November 2003. After sending a letter supporting Martin Hohmann, a former member of the Bundestag, and the speech that Hohmann had made that compared "the actions of Jews in the 1917 Russian revolution with those of the Nazis", Günzel was fired from his position as General by Defence Minister Peter Struck.
