Rommel, Erwin Johannes Eugen
German field marshal. He served in World War I, and in World War II he played an important part in the invasions of central Europe and France. He was commander of the North African offensive from 1941 (when he was nicknamed ‘Desert Fox’) until defeated in the Battles of El Alamein and he was expelled from Africa in March 1943.
Rommel was commander-in-chief for a short time against the Allies in Europe in 1944 but (as a sympathizer with the Stauffenberg plot against Hitler) was forced to commit suicide.
