Heinz Harmel (29 June 1906 – 2 September 2000) was a German SS commander during the Nazi era.
Born in 1906, Harmel volunteered for the SS-Verfügungstruppe (later known as the Waffen-SS) in 1935 and served as a company commander in the SS-Regiment Der Führer, with which he took part in the Battle of France in 1940.
