Rommel
In 1944, at the state funeral for the beloved general Erwin Rommel, the oration, prepared by Göbbels, ended with "his heart belonged to the Führer." Even in death, Rommel was unable to break free of Adolf Hitler, to whom he owed his military career. Yet, Rommel joined a conspiracy to kill Hitler that cost him his life. We see what led to that point, and examine his tactical brilliance in both WWI and WWII, up to his dazzling desert victories in North Africa and promotion to Field Marshal in 1942.
