Summary

[edit]
Description

Erwin Johannes Eugen Rommel was one of the most famous German field marshals during World War II. He was nicknamed the Desert Fox (Wüstenfuchs) following his ability as commander of the Afrika Korps during the North African campaign between 1941 and 1943. He later received command of the German units stationed in France to contain the foreseeable allied invasion, which eventually materialized in Normandy. Rommel is frequently remembered not only for his marked military prowess, but for his chivalry with his opponents (he was one of the German commanders who refused to obey the Kommandobefehl). After the attack of 20 of July of 1944 against Adolf Hitler, was accused of having participated in the same and forced to commit suicide to avoid reprisals against his family and his near personnel. However, it’s has always been an ambiguous and polemical figure, since it’s disputed by Historians whether he was actually an apolitical figure or a propaganda figure used by the Allies that has survived until nowadays.
