Has anyone shown the lyrics? Here is my attempt at the first verse. (This is taken from hearing the sound, so all suggested improvements are welcome!):
@dave19941000 Hitler was Austrian anyway, Rommel was innocent but not loyal to the Austrian dictator, That is a crime and just like so many millions he was killed. The funny thing is that Rommel wanted to keep Hitler alive.
@martynrobin121 He wanted to keep him alive? Then why did he take part in a failed assassination attempt?I do not think putting a bomb in his bunker office while he is in it will keep Hitler alive.
@dave19941000 What? Rommel was not involved in any plot to kill Hitler. Yes Rommel was asked and knew about the plot. However Rommel was not involved, He wanted Hitler alive, Otherwise he would be just be replaced by anouther facists. The reason Hitler wanted Rommel killed, Was because Rommel knew about the plot and said nothing. The only part Rommel played in the attempt on Hitler, Was keeping his mouth shut.
great generals need luck and fuel also sufficient amunition and supply... comparing rommel with other generals through the centuries i would say that he was limiited.. his star was short with or without fuel support.. its simple to understand that the territory you fight must be always open and friendly and that can not last if you face other big armies stubborn to defeat you..
The Battle of Alam el Halfa was launched on 30 August, with Rommel's forces driving through the south flank. After passing the El Alamein line to the south, Rommel drove north at the Alam el Halfa Ridge, just as Montgomery had anticipated. Under heavy fire from British artillery and aircraft, and in the face of well prepared positions that Rommel could not hope to outflank due to lack of fuel, the attack stalled. By 2 September,
General Cunningham did, as Rommel had hoped, decide to withdraw the Eighth Army to Egypt, but Auchinleck arrived from Cairo just in time to cancel the withdrawal orders.[34] The German attack, which began with only 100 operational tanks remaining,[35] stalled as it outran its supplies and met stiffening resistance. The counterattack was criticised by the German High Command and some of his staff officers as too dangerous with Commonwealth forces still operating along the coast east of Tobruk,
we must see romels mistakes in desertRommel’s fame in the desert rests on his success as a leader and also his uncompromising belief that all prisoners of war should be well looked after and not abused. One story told at the time was that Italian troops took from British POWs’ their watches and other valuables. When Rommel found out, he ordered that they be returned to their owners immediately. To many British ‘Desert Rats’, Rommel epitomised a gentleman’s approach to a deadly issue – war.
Anyone who likes to taste the atmosphere in WW2 days must also listen to and study the lyrics of youtube : "panzerlied".
Originally nazi though still in use in lots of countries, even western european.
Instead of wetting your pants in your tank in Afghanistan or else, you should have this tune in your head when you are heading for your appointment with death.
@pyramidheadkitten9 correct,,,,look go on another place to comment this song was about a brilliant man who hated hitler in the end....this general became the greatest general in history
Rommel war vor seiner Zeitgenossen Soweit sich die Taktik und Einsatz. Er war auch einer der vielen Bereich marshalls, geführt von der Vorderseite. Er bestand darauf, dass Einsazgruppen nicht hinter seiner Zeilen als "taktischen betreffen".
I am a first generation American and am very proud of my country. However, putting aside the Nationalist Socialist German Workers Party (Nationale Sozialistiche Deutch Abeiterpartei) Erwin Rommel's "The Tank in Attack" is still compulsory reading at the United States War College, Advanced Armored Warfare School at Fort Hood, Texas; Fort Knox Kentucky and is recognized as the handbook for tank commanders worldwide. I admired his successes against better equipted larger forces.
@Hammerstrike44 interesting ,,,i am glad you understand rommel,,a great and honest general ,,i think the greatest in history,,,remember it wasnt just about tank attack,,,it was the critical point to attack which he did crital attack was brillance,,,,,,,,,,anyway pleased to meet you my friend romell admirer:-)
@dodgey212 Apparently you have read the manual. His whole hypothesis was the commander could not depend on reports and communications to dicate manuevers in battle. He must be in a forward position to know the precise moment when to commit to an advance or his famous "spearhead" assaults, or restrain the assault and take a defensive posture. However he emphsized the point that a defensive posture was tantamount to failure.
Rommel war und bliebt das Idol eines Generals kein anderer hat die Menschenrechte so akzeptiert wie Rommel kein anderer war taktisch so genial wie Rommel schade dass er den Krieg nicht überleben durfte
My grandfather & grand-uncle served under Rommel. Both were Panzer commanders in the 7th Panzer Division after Rommel took command in France. Both were decorated by Rommel on May 28, 1940 for the encirclement of the French 1st Army, battle of Lille. They also commanded in Africa. After Africa they campaigned during the 6th Army's encirclement and counter-attack. Both said Rommel made a personal request no einsatzgruppen (death sqauds) operate behind his lines.
Germany has nothing to be ashamed of. They have stitched up your country and everything they were about. You fought to free yourselves of the international moneymen who were choking your country and Europe.
The same ppl who have brought the current economic crises.
I don't know if its a tall tale or not, but members of my family who served in WWII reckon that Rommel was 1st: a gentleman 2nd: a brilliant military commander 3rd: he respected his men 4th: was betrayed by Hitler & his associates. And they all reckon he wasn't a Nazi.
I support your right to free speech, but I do not believe that America should adopt National Socialism when most of our freedom loving ancestors gave thier lives to fighting against Nazi Germany.
You,what entered in first real conficlt with Third Reich in 1944. For public number of Soviet deaths in WWII is 25 million. Ofcourse that is just official, but number in fact is much larger. Tell me how many US soldiers gave their lives against Third reich. Not talking about pacific fight.
what killed germany was one mistake..... and that was to evean start a war witht he world they could no learn the first time so the world took them down 2 times.... tell yeah how dumb they where to evean want a war but that is what you get when you have a mential ill person leading your army
Rommel, Von Manstein, Runstedt, Guderian, Paulus, and a few others, were the greatest Generals of the 2nd World War....
Say all you want about patton, he had waves of fresh troops and tanks for the states, and Monty, Monty was good, btu became a cock in Italy and France.....
Russian Generals, Maniacs who would have everyone butchered.....they dont count.... Endless waves will always beat the weary Germany Army...
If anyhting, out of the entire war, the German army was the best, but unsupplied
To bad he had to commit suicide in 1944he was the only good General out of the bunch. Not saying thr others were bad with tactics just the fack he dident commit war crimes. He proboubly would have sucseded Karl Donitz as chansoller of Germany in 1945 by the way nice vid m8!!!
He didn't commit suicide... Nazis came up for him, took him, and gave him deadly chemical substance so it looked like a stroke for public. He knew it was coming. His son talked about that in documentary at least. His son was there present when it happened. Hitler wanted Rommel dead as he was not directly involved against hitlers assination but he wasn''t against it also. Thing is that whole German army favoured Rommel as a top commaned, so had to die under 'natural' causes.
its MANY differences between us n German army apart from the fact the Germans are in a different leaque of course the Germans ALWAYS respected a brave enemy they are a far better desiplined army they NEVER murder/torture civillians unless ordered to in Greece hitler ordered all greek troops be released cause of their bravery given the guard of honour twice churchil said as from now men don't fight like heros heros fight like greeks what did out us friends did after the war? attacked us
Rommel saved Jews and others in Africa and wouldn't ship them back to Naziland. He fooled SS officials sent to Africa and stated that he used many Allied POWs and native people for construction work etc.
The Afrika corps under Rommel were never charged with any war crimes. Though he was "the enemy" of the allies, he served his country with dignity and character. An admirable man.
the Germans were never Nazis, this only you idiotic Americans your disgusting propaganda said it, the Jewish propaganda. And if you would have read then you would know it that a loyal German national socialist was rommel until the day of his death and was faithful to Hitler
Don't be too sure of yourself, Rommel was a very good officer and I don't think you would win. He was so tricky that even his own commanders couldn't keep up with him in France
Ah Rommel, a brilliant general and prime example of German military valor. Refusal to bloody himself or disgrace his army with the Furher's war-crime orders, and spoke up against them fervantly.
But yet still served his Vaterland, crossing swords with his self-proclaimed British and American rivals, General Patton & Montgomery.
Rommel was undoubtly one of the greatest Generals of the 20th century, any fan of military history fan pays his or her respects to the legendary Desert Fox.
Red army could not reach Berlin whitout Usa,Uk and 93 other nations...because from June 22th(operation barabrosa) til Novemebr 22th...The Soviets lost 5.5 Million Man.11.000 Planes and 15.000 tanks...
That all in just Three Months....
Stalin him self offered Hitler whole Ukraine just for a chease Fire...
Red Army on its own had no chanse against the brutaly efficiant Wehrmacht...Besides,Germany has defeated Russia already in ww1,despite the fact that they fought Two Front War.
yeah? want me to tell you how? with ten times as many supplies, five times as many aircraft, four times as many tanks and twice as many infantry! and all in 12 months!!!!!!!!!!! if rommel had had a few more troops he would have been in bagdag before even cunningham took comand
I know buddy, it's pretty much a known fact the whole of the Nazi command was better than the allies. They were simply outnumbered on all fronts and that's why they couldn't of won WW2.
Oh and Hitler stupidity in thinking he was the right person to command his armies on the eastern front and tell them what to do. That cost the Nazis dearly. Who knows how it could of gone if he let his commanders do their job and din't interfere.
i totally agree with jonnyw127. the loss of the war was mainly due to hitlers incompotence. he thought that as his service in WWI he thought that he knew 2 shits about military strategy wherein reality he was nothing more than a petty lance corpral... but by far the greatest of these commanders you speak of is the "desert fox" General Rommel
wow...That's one of the silliest movie ever, with one of the silliest actors ever. Tom Cruise. this "Valkyrie" was just a Nazi General, which was FOR hitler, just at the end of the war he treated against him... No respect for such a coward, Ijust give my respect to those, which fought from beginning on against that type of government..
that's your only reply that you use for me and others. it just goes to show that you dont have an answer. "go read a Jew book and watch another jew movie" please how about a little more originality? that's what every skinhead says when they're stumped. "he looks great wearing his nazi medals given to him by hitler's nazi party" yeah im sure he looked great too when the nazi party forced him to kill himself.
rommel was indeed a nonNazi yet you seem to revere him so much. hitler, the dog that he was, forced rommel to commit suicide when he had been only implicated to have been in the assassination plot! rommel was one of the best generals of all time! a military wonder. it just goes to show what kind of animal hitler was. rommel was once his favorite general and how did he repay him?! if rommel hadnt committed suicide, he AND his family would have been executed.
you should be glas about the allies nod about the reds. those guys were as bad as the nazis. you don't hear much about it because they were part of the western allies
he definetly wasn't, he hated jews too and starved about 600,000 people just in the ukraine. and those are just the highlights. Oh and whoever he freed from the holocaust he took them to siberia for hard labor
Oh haha, just checked out you profile page. So you're a Neo Nazi with Rommel as your background? Hilarious! Rommel was NOT a Nazi and hated Nazi policies (final solution, etc.) Go to school, read a book. Don't disgrace Rommel's name with your Nazi bullshit.
finally dude im glad to see someone who isnt a complete dipshit. rommel was no doubt a genius probably one of the best militarty strategists in history. tho they have no evidence he was involved in july 20 plot, based off how he felt about his orders and the way he thought about the policies... doesnt it make you wonder?
Why did you pick Rommel as your username if you like Hitler so much? You know Rommel openly disobeyed the Fuhrer on A LOT and even expressed his disdain for him.
its called a video game... you dont have to be a child to play video games... and look at my profile pic my bicep is probably bigger then ur head... age is just a number bro...
mature... and no im catholic. and i dont give a shit about the jews. and y would u still h8 a group of people who were falsely accused of things not even linked to em. and im refering to hitler not rommel... and it wasnt jus the jews he killed. wow u rlly think u no so much but u seem to be dumb as shit. July 20 Plot has been called valkyrie since it happened so it appears you dont know ur history either. theres just a movie based off the name...
ignorant... you know he was part of valkyrie right? he was killed for that and not following many of hitlers orders to kill innocent people. i admire rommel because of his genius, and strategic skill, one of the best there ever was.
Rommel was not part of OP Valkyrie. He was accused of being involved because one of the ringleaders of the OP had listed Rommel as a future president of Germany after Hitler was assassinated. The Nazis found this list after the operation failed, saw Rommel's name, and immediately said he was involved and guilty. Thats why they asked him to kill himself.
the 2 dislike were ran over by Rommel's panzers

Ok let give both of them equal of everything.
20 airplanes
5 artillery
150 foot soldier
35 tanks
Then we'll see who win. I'd bet everything I own on Rommel without blink.

Don't be too sure of yourself, Rommel was a very good officer and I don't think you would win. He was so tricky that even his own commanders couldn't keep up with him in France

For any Germans who can give an unbias answer, how is Rommel remembered in modern day Deutschland?

id like to know the answer to that aswell.
sadly i suspect it would be frowned upon in modern germany

Im french but I can answer. He is very well respected and I even visited a museum where they worship his military service.
Germans like to differentiate wehrmacht and nazis while puts the blame off their shoulders somehow.
Rommel enters in this category : Military man not nazi.
I think its all bullshit and they are all prussians/nazis any way

Ah Rommel, a brilliant general and prime example of German military valor. Refusal to bloody himself or disgrace his army with the Furher's war-crime orders, and spoke up against them fervantly.
But yet still served his Vaterland, crossing swords with his self-proclaimed British and American rivals, General Patton & Montgomery.
Rommel was undoubtly one of the greatest Generals of the 20th century, any fan of military history fan pays his or her respects to the legendary Desert Fox.

So uncompromising was he, that he made enemies of the Nazi party and ended up taking his own life to save his family.
Salutes all around.

Common Mistunderstanding is that USSR outproduced Germany,,,But Thats a Myth...
They only produced more Tanks and Oil..
But Based on all Warmaking Material
Germany Outproduced USSR by 2 to 1!!!!
But that dosent change the fact that Germany was outnummberd by 25 to 1 in Air,15 to 1 on Ground...
But German technolgy also contributed alout for germany able to Hold of for so long...
If The Ussr fought the West in 1940,it wouldew not lasted for 5 Months...

Red army could not reach Berlin whitout Usa,Uk and 93 other nations...because from June 22th(operation barabrosa) til Novemebr 22th...The Soviets lost 5.5 Million Man.11.000 Planes and 15.000 tanks...
That all in just Three Months....
Stalin him self offered Hitler whole Ukraine just for a chease Fire...
Red Army on its own had no chanse against the brutaly efficiant Wehrmacht...Besides,Germany has defeated Russia already in ww1,despite the fact that they fought Two Front War.

I know buddy, it's pretty much a known fact the whole of the Nazi command was better than the allies. They were simply outnumbered on all fronts and that's why they couldn't of won WW2.
Oh and Hitler stupidity in thinking he was the right person to command his armies on the eastern front and tell them what to do. That cost the Nazis dearly. Who knows how it could of gone if he let his commanders do their job and din't interfere.

ABDACOM 3 years ago 2
i totally agree with jonnyw127. the loss of the war was mainly due to hitlers incompotence. he thought that as his service in WWI he thought that he knew 2 shits about military strategy wherein reality he was nothing more than a petty lance corpral... but by far the greatest of these commanders you speak of is the "desert fox" General Rommel

No respect for such a coward, Ijust give my respect to those, which fought from beginning on against that type of government..

that's your only reply that you use for me and others. it just goes to show that you dont have an answer. "go read a Jew book and watch another jew movie" please how about a little more originality? that's what every skinhead says when they're stumped. "he looks great wearing his nazi medals given to him by hitler's nazi party" yeah im sure he looked great too when the nazi party forced him to kill himself.
pinay1026 3 years ago
you are so unclear rommel1418SS
rommel was indeed a nonNazi yet you seem to revere him so much. hitler, the dog that he was, forced rommel to commit suicide when he had been only implicated to have been in the assassination plot! rommel was one of the best generals of all time! a military wonder. it just goes to show what kind of animal hitler was. rommel was once his favorite general and how did he repay him?! if rommel hadnt committed suicide, he AND his family would have been executed.

Oh haha, just checked out you profile page. So you're a Neo Nazi with Rommel as your background? Hilarious! Rommel was NOT a Nazi and hated Nazi policies (final solution, etc.) Go to school, read a book. Don't disgrace Rommel's name with your Nazi bullshit.

finally dude im glad to see someone who isnt a complete dipshit. rommel was no doubt a genius probably one of the best militarty strategists in history. tho they have no evidence he was involved in july 20 plot, based off how he felt about his orders and the way he thought about the policies... doesnt it make you wonder?
lilbrazilian227 3 years ago
Why did you pick Rommel as your username if you like Hitler so much? You know Rommel openly disobeyed the Fuhrer on A LOT and even expressed his disdain for him.

mature... and no im catholic. and i dont give a shit about the jews. and y would u still h8 a group of people who were falsely accused of things not even linked to em. and im refering to hitler not rommel... and it wasnt jus the jews he killed. wow u rlly think u no so much but u seem to be dumb as shit. July 20 Plot has been called valkyrie since it happened so it appears you dont know ur history either. theres just a movie based off the name...
lilbrazilian227 3 years ago
im a lil kid? ok. first off you dont no me. second only coward pussies talk shit online. third who the fuck eats wheaties?
lilbrazilian227 3 years ago
valkyrie isnt just a movie smart shit. it actually happened. maybe July 20 Plot rings a bell? or maybe u just dont know your history...
lilbrazilian227 3 years ago
ignorant... you know he was part of valkyrie right? he was killed for that and not following many of hitlers orders to kill innocent people. i admire rommel because of his genius, and strategic skill, one of the best there ever was.
lilbrazilian227 3 years ago
Rommel was not part of OP Valkyrie. He was accused of being involved because one of the ringleaders of the OP had listed Rommel as a future president of Germany after Hitler was assassinated. The Nazis found this list after the operation failed, saw Rommel's name, and immediately said he was involved and guilty. Thats why they asked him to kill himself.

In fact this is from the episode Trobuk&Gazala
where Rommel truly showed his Genius.
Being outnummberd nearly 3 to 1 he virtualy
destroyed the entire British 8th Army on the
Spot...Cluprit for British defeat was not
Auchinleck.But General Neal Richi...
