Which pale beside his achievements. Montogomery like Patton
was a prima-donna, a pain in the arse and an excellent
field commander. Like all generals he made mistakes but
got things more right than wrong.

And Rommel was better than both of them combined. If only he had the
resources in men and material that the US/Britain possessed... or at
least the Heer's PROMISED material from Berlin and not had to babysit
the Italians!
One might also wonder what would have happened if Hitler had listened
to Guderian as well???

The repetitive "If"...the continuing mantra of those who cannot accept the
fact that Germany screwed the pooch in WWII and lost. As much as I respect
Rommel, wasn't he the guy who commanded the losing side at Normandy,
having
taken a quick getaway trip back to see his family when the invasion began
because he thought there was no *way* the allies would attack in that kind
of weather...?


Not for the first time either. On the eve of the battle of El-Alamein
Rommel was ... absent on leave.
