Guest The Winter Of My Discontent Report post Posted March 17, 2004 His big battle was in Africa - it was his claim to fame. He put up a gallant fight, but due to circumstances out of his control, the Axis powers could not defeat the Allies. Excerpted from a website: On February 23rd, Rommel was forced to take the command of the Army Group Africa. Soon after, Rommel handed over the command of the Army Group Africa to General von Arnim.On March 6th of 1943, Erwin Rommel flew back to Germany, to persuade Adolf Hitler about the hopelessness of the Axis situation in Africa. In reality, Rommel was recalled back to Germany, he then was ordered to take the sick leave and all his pleas to return to Africa where turned down. On March 11th of 1943, Erwin Rommel was awarded by Hitler, the Knights Cross with Oakleaves, Swords and Diamonds. At the time, Erwin Rommel was physically and morally shaken and was a shadow of his past glory. Two months later, on May 13th of 1943, the surrender of all Axis forces (200.000 men) in North Africa, took place. --------------- While it wasn't necessarily his fault, he was in charge of an operation that ultimately failed. THUS, he is a punk bitch loser. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MrRant 0 Report post Posted March 17, 2004 Rommel, Erwin Rommel, Erwin, 1891-1944, German field marshal. He entered the army in 1910 and rose slowly through the ranks. In 1939, Adolf Hitler made him a general. Rommel brilliantly commanded an armored division in the attack (1940) on France. In Feb., 1941, he took the specially trained tank corps, the Afrika Korps, into Libya. For his successes there he was made field marshal and earned the name the desert fox. In 1942 he pressed almost to Alexandria, Egypt, but was stalled by fierce British resistance and lack of supplies. A British offensive overwhelmed (Oct.-Nov., 1942) the German forces at Alamein (see North Africa, campaigns in). Rommel was recalled to Germany before the Afrika Korps's final defeat. He was a commander in N France when the Allies invaded Normandy in June, 1944. Allied success led Rommel, who had lost his respect for Hitler, to agree to a plot to remove Hitler from office. Wounded in an air raid in July, he had just recovered when he was forced to take poison because of his part in the attempt on Hitler's life in July, 1944. See his memoirs and correspondence of World War II. (The Rommel Papers, ed. by B. H. Liddell Hart, 1953); biography by D. Young (1950, repr. 1969); studies by R. Lewin (1968, repr. 1972) and C. Douglas-Hume (1973). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Mandarin 0 Report post Posted March 17, 2004 Just for kicks, here's Erwin Rommel's suicide note: "I have just had to tell your mother that I shall be dead in a quarter of an hour. Hitler is charging me with high treason. In view of my services in Africa, I am to have the chance of dying by poison. The two generals have brought it with them. It is fatal in three seconds. If I accept, none of the usual steps will be taken against my family. I'm to be given a state funeral. It's all been prepared to the last detail. In a quarter of an hour, you will recieve a call from the hospital in Ulm to say that I've had a brain seizure on the way to a conference." God bless you, Uncle John's Bathroom Reader.

Guest The Winter Of My Discontent Report post Posted March 17, 2004 Rommel still lost. It was his soldiers out there who lost. He simply left before the actual defeat happened. But he was fighting in Africa for 2 or 3 years before his army ultimately lost. But thats a moot point; I'm simply nitpicking. But he did lose. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
