On this day, exactly 60 years ago, 1944, the historys propably
the best stradegist, Erwin Rommel committed suicide.
He was known as the conqueror of France, Romania, Italy
and N-Africa.
After his Africa campaing he was transferred back to N-France.
He tried to prove to Hitler that the allies will much likely try to invade to
the europe from the coast of the Normandy, but Hitler believed that it was
impossible. Therefor he didnīt give so many units to Rommel.
After the defeat of the D-Day, Rommel started to think Hitlers ability to rule
and he started to plan attendad against the Hitler, when the war could still be won.
Then he was injured at a bombing raid of british bombers.
Soon after that, Hitler heard about Rommels conspiracy against him.
He sent two officers to rommels home, which gave him two choices:
a)a trial, where he would most likely be punished by death and he would lost his fame.
or
b)a syanide piller
He choosed the last one and after that, Hitler announced that Erwin Rommel
has died in his injuries. He also had a nationalfunerals.
I prefer all readers to listen "ich hatt ein kameraden" , which was composed
for Rommels funeral.(very sad marchsong)
So? Superman died the other day, and he beat up aliens for a living. Defeating Lex Luthor is a lot tougher than invading france. You could do that with an infra-red laptop and two dozen furbies.
Rommel wore a ring on his finger
He only took it off when he flew his plane
Once he told me why
He said we all have to fly, some-day
We all have to fly
Rommel was my favorite german general. Jigen, if you want to try and educate people, finish sentences: "Rommel started to think Hitlers ability to rule."
Hayo, he wore the 7th panzer ring and did take it off because the altitude made his finger swell.
Rommel > Reeves
Steve Zissou: Anne-Marie, do all the interns get Glocks?
Meanwhile, Christopher Reeves was, in my books, a selfish fuck. He donated money for testing that killed human embryos only to find a cure for his own injury.
