Desert Fox

Field Marshal Erwin Romme also known as the Desert Fox. He was one of Hitler’s high ranking officers & the commander of the Ghost division during the invasion of France. After that he was promoted and appointed commander of the 5th Light Division & then a Field Marshal the commander of the Nazi’s Armey in North of Africa where he got his desert fox nickname.

Just to have an idea, field marshal is the highest rank in the armies, one step above a general & one promotion to marshal. Navies highest rank is "admiral of the Fleet", Air forces highest rank is "marshal of the Air Force"& armies highest is "field marshal"


Last night I watched the first episode of a documentary called “Hitler's warriors documentary ep01field marshal Erwin Rommel”. It was so great I recommend everyone to check it out.
