One of the few Military leaders of the Reich to be respected by both sides, and with a damnable good reason too.
Even Patton had a copy of his Infantry Tactics book,just so you know how admired he was
@@l04d83 Studying an enemy is not necessarily admiring him. Dundee enough to write a book about tactics, then follow them in battle- dumb enough to lose.
@@rubyait now tell me. Did you serve in any war ?
Few? There were actually many of them that were respected (for their capabilities) and feared, i.e. Guderian and Mannstein. Germany was completely outnumbered from the very beginning, yet they made lots of victories against all odds. The main reasons for that were extremely well drilled soldiers and superior tactics/leadership. Rommel was one of the best among the best.
@@dude861 being feared doesn’t necessarily mean that you’re respected. But Mannastein and Guderian are still good examples in the way that used very unproven and new tactics which resulted in great success for the Wehrmacht.
In my eyes Rommel was one of the greatest generals in history.
If he had supplies, Rommel would won the Battle of El Alamein
@@jayarr8866 if he had balls, he would have fought against Hitler
@@KK-rg1wz Only Guderian can do that
@@KK-rg1wzI AGREE 👍 WITH YOU. I REALLY HATED AND STILL HATE NAZIS EVEN AFTER 80 YEARS, BUT ERWIN ROMMEL WAS AND IS STILL AN EXCEPTION, A GERMAN FIELD MARSHALL I AM STILL ADMIRING, PLUS THOSE WHO TRIED TO GET RID OF ADOLF HITLER PLUS HIS GANG, GESTAPO AND SS. OSKAR SCHINDLER AND THOSE WHO RISKED AND PAID WITH THEIR LIVES SPEAKING AGAINST HITLER AND HIS GANG. NO REGRETS NO REMORSE.
He leaved the front headless because he had to go to his wife’s birthday in Berlin.
What a general right
He didn't deserve to die that way...his loyalty as a militair got highly respect from his own soldiers as from his enemy.
Well, at least he didn't hang like the rest of the Nazi Generals did.
@@saigon68foxtrot83most nazi generals who weren’t involved in the ss or gestapo were recruited to be generals in west Germany and some in east Germany
I AGREE 👍 WITH YOU. HE DIDN'T DESERVE TO DIE IN THAT WAY. AS REGARDS ADOLF HITLER AND HIS GANG, GESTAPO AND SS MAY ROT IN HELL. NO REGRETS NO REMORSE. 🇨🇾🇨🇾
@@saigon68foxtrot83 Not true. A number of WW2 German generals served after the war.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heinz_Guderian
I do highly respect this field Marshall rommel he was a very brilliant strategist for any army
He was a human. Respected a genevian convention, treated PoW and took part in 20 th july plot . He is a man which you must admire
@@robinkalousek7247 He just didn't like Hitler
Mein Großvater war beim Afrika Korps Rommel möge in frieden ruhen wie mein Großvater und alle anderem anderen mutigen deutschen Soldaten 😔🇩🇪♥️
Gott sei ihnen gnädig
Dein Grossvater hatte nichts zu süchen in Afrika. Er kämpfte für Hitler....
My grandfather was in the Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders,and fought against Rommel in North Africa, he had nothing but respect for Rommel. R.I.P Rommel a true great General and warrior
rommel had honour
indeed
don't blame him if hes from Poland.... Poles fighting all life and 2WW was dramatic disaster for them, for all of us - my personal feeling is that Rommel was the only one great soldier who treated the prisoners well, he had rules. I hope one day to visit hes grave. RIP Rommel.
Rommel was a loyal Nazi until his fuhrer started losing WW2!

@@kimberlywilliams7543 rommel treated his Enemy with honnor and human Sense something the ss didnt have
@Kimberly Williams, if you would spent 2 minutes researching, you would find out that Rommel served in the Reichswehr. Rommel Was a Soldier that would do anything for his country. He had honor not like Hitler. He was a Soldier and he got a command and he followed it. If you wanna talk shit about anyone you should do it on Hitler, Goebbles, Himmler or Göring. Actual Nazis that carry millions of lives on their back. Evil fucks that did horrible shit. Rommel wasnt one of them, that's why he had to poisen himself to save his family from Hitler.
Do research first you Churchill loving Cunt.
Rest in Peace.
In hell!
@@tuarchep3964 the one who deserves hell is you
@@tuarchep3964 talking about yourself now coward ?
@@jaeger.5045 he is right tho he killed himself wich is instant hell
@@idkman9124 so people that kill themselves go to hell ?
Regardless of which side he was on, He was an amazing soldier...a true legend..RIP
Your camera makes more noise than a panzer tank...god the zooming sound is terrifying!
Reich that gonna make him come back
mein nachbar,der vor einen jahr mit 96 gestorben ist,war unter e. rommel funker in afrika.diese geschichten,die er erzählt hat,sind einfach faszinierend.ich konnte ihm stundenlang zu hören.rommel muss ein toller mensch gewesen sein
An honorable soldier.
My 2 favorite Generals. General Rommel and General Patton.
The best of the best
I want to goth is place to respect him . and put some flower and whiskey Rest In Peace Erwin Rommel You are the most general that I ever respect.
I want to go to Russia and visit Stalingrad and pay my respects to the men, women, child and Red Army who died there.
@@saigon68foxtrot83 apitu on their graves
Saigon68 Foxtrot I don’t remember anyone asking for what you want to do?
Rommel has been, and always will be my favorite General in military history, hell German history for that matter. A brilliant strategist and a man who fought for and against tyranny and was respected by both sides of the war. Were I ever to take a visit back to Germany I would visit his grave and place a flower, perhaps a piece of war memorabilia to commemorate this legend of a man... Rest in peace Rommel, you truly are a man that deserves respect
Respect the wise and right.
Wonderfull..... Absolutely wonderful. A brave man who deserves a place like this.
Rommel The Greatest warrior ! Respect forever !
Thank you for providing us history buff's with this footage. Sadly many of us live in distant lands and unable to make the journey. I will make it my duty one day. I managed to visit the Red Baron's grave side (Baron Manfred von Richtofen) at Wiesbaden in 2010. It was a humbling experience.
the sound of the zoom at the end scared the shit out of me ^^
A real Germanic Knight! Deserve my full respect and salute! It is the great honor to learn your story and know whom you are, the greatest Field Marshall!!
Thank you very much for this footage and the information
you kindly provided about visiting.
Thanks for show this !!!
Unserer Generalfeldmarschall er lebe hoch ein Mann mit Respekt ein Mann mit Ehre.
R.I.P. Generalfeldmarschall 🥀
Ruhe in Frieden, großer Feldmarschal.
Rest in peace great man
Ruhen sie in Frieden Herr Generalfeldmarschall !
Hats off !!
holy god, thank you for sharing. my jaw was on the floor for this
R.i.p great general
I shall lay upon mien Rommel's grave a red & black rose for every year his amazing and great life.
God?
He sacrifieced himself for the Vaterland.....
RIP Rommel.
*SALUTE*
May you rest in Valhalla where the brave, live forever.
I was in Herrlingen way back in 1991 looking for his grave and never found it. But by the help of Google map, the church can be easily found. It is located in the intersection of Oberherrlinger Strasse & Bergstrasse. The satellite view of the town is so detailed that when you zoom in you could barely see his grave.
right sir
Next time, ask a person walking around. Everybody knows General Erwin Rommel.
Ruhe in Frieden Herr Rommel
Perhaps the most brilliant German commander along with field marshal Meinstein. His tactics are still being studied in military academies around the world.
R.I.P. Desert Fox, you'll never be forgotten!
Excellent! Now I have video thanks to you! I only had 110 film available when I was stationed in Neu Ulm.
Brilliant man fought for and against the tyrant
you are in our Hearts
thanks for show this... i hope someday be there... and now i know have a museum too.
Salute to desert fox from Turkey.
Ruhe in Frieden.
HONOR Y GLORIA A LOS SOLDADOS MUERTOS POR SU PATRIA
Ein großartiger , erfolgreicher Soldat der Deutschen ! Herr GFM ruhen Sie in Frieden !!!
Er kâmpfte für Hitler, in eine grausame Vernichtungskrieg....
@@KK-rg1wz du würdest doch in der heutigen Zeit auch für das Kriegsbündnis Nato gegen Rußland in einen sinnlosen aber brutalen Vernichtungskrieg ziehen - oder ?
@@siegfriedkr6975 Die Russen machen heute was die deutschen (zwei mal) gemacht haben, ein agressive, sinnlose, brutale Angriffkrieg... und es gibt wieder Allierten, wie in 1914 und in 1940. Friedsame Länder, allen zusammen kämpfen für Demokratie und Friede. Gegen Rusland (heute) und Deutschland (1914-1918 und 1939-1945).
Habe ich doch gesagt ! Und du Schlafmütze, bist wieder dabei - weil du noch nie etwas gemerkt hast !!!!!!
A truly great military mind.
Need to get there.
Rommel was greatest general all of the ages
Have to admit General Patton did learn tank tactics from reading his book. Greater than Patton? Many would agree and many would disagree.
@@georg57garvy21 yes he is!
I'am muslim and i'm respec to general erwin rommel
Guten Danke!!! :)
@@bullworthstudent9328 i love Karl Donitz from Turkey
Erwin Rommel - he was a true German, not a Nazi! He fought for his country and his comrades side by side with his men and sacrifced himself for his family. I have deepest respect for this man!
Ruhe in Frieden
Rest In Peace
That Camera zoom sounds like a Panzer in the middle of WWII
General Rommel you were and are an outstanding leader and man. Thank you for your admiration of the art of war and respect. No words can say what needs to be said except i would follow your command on a fubar mission because i believe in you so much sir thank you for the greatest sacrifice any soldier could give. Rest forever honorably as you were general Rommel
he was one of the most respected generals in history he was an avid student of confederate general Jeb Stewert Calvary tactics
Love from India Field Marshall Erwin Rommel .
R.I.P. HONOR AND BRAVE MAN.GOOD WITH YOU FOR EVER..
sing "ich hatt einen kameraden" in front of it
Respect
Rest In Peace
Rest In Peace marshal. I shall meet you in paradise.
Thank you for the information. We would have to use public transportation, would this change the difficulty in getting there? Approximately how much time from Munich and back, seeing those sites around Ulm take in your opinion?
Grande Homem
One of the best military leaders ever lived. RIP
Great men are Remembered, honored, respected for ones duty too the Nation
A train from München Hbf (Munich's main station) to Herrlingen is about 2 hours and 15 minutes. You just have to switch trains in Ulm. The price now is 36 EUR one way. See diebahn.de for train schedules. The train station in Herrlingen is within walking distance to the museum & cemetery (less than 5 minute walk). The memorial site is about a 15 to 20 minute walk (up a hill). Remember, the museum is only open during the times that the city hall is open so you can get the key.
Like all confederate grave yards in the southern part of the USA, I'd visit the fucking Nazi's grave just to piss on it! Y'all hillbillies know that Patton's grand parents fought against the USA in the civil war?
Rest in Peace Field Marshall Rommel. May men like you shall no longer be wasted on fruitless wars.
A legend
My favorite legend general feldmarshall,and great Man , Erwin Rommel. R.I.P.
Rest in paradise legend.
Have you posted a video of the memorial where he died?
Thank you for this one
Grande mi general rommel zorro del desierto vivirás por siempre como un gran general
Je suis belge mais rommel restera toujours mon idole
Ich habe vor nächstem Samstag dort hinzugehen von Stuttgart. Weiß jemand die Öffnungszeiten des Museums oder sonst noch etwas wichtiges das ich wissen muß?
Salute herr general !
What of his son Manfred? He used to be mayor of Ulm and was good friends with Patton's son also a general.
mayor of Stuttgart
ojala, algun dia, haga honores y muestre mi respeto a este grandioso General!
Tu eres un pinche pendrjo facista!
Can you please tell me where EXACTLY is his grave? I have searched it on Google maps, but I can't find a cemetery in Herrlingen... Thnx!
Across the street from City Hall
+Duelkenvideo do you remember the name of the street precisely, kind sir? I am looking forward to visit his grave soon enough and I need to collect some important data about the location
+InfernalDreamGuitar You need to search it in Blaustein (near Ulm). From the B28 road you need to turn rigth to Bergstr., and then the second street left Oberherrlinger str. and there you can see the church which is in the cemetery. Hope this helped and I hope you find it as well!
Thank you, kind sir. I am sure it will help. It is my biggest dreams to visit the tomb of one of my idols of all times.
It is in Herrlingen, not far from the Herrlingen train station. I believe at the intersection of Kanalweg and Oberherrlingerstrasse. The Rommel museum is on Kanalweg, you need to get the key from the city hall building right next to it. The cemetery is across the street, you can't miss it. These two sites (museum & cemetery) are within walking distance from the train station. The 3rd site, the memorial, is a little further away, follow street: Erwin-Rommel-Steige. It is also reachable by foot but probably a 15 - 20 minute walk. Just give "Herrlingen, Germany" in google maps and you then look just north of the train station and you will see the museum and the street names I list above. Have a nice trip.
RIP.mi mariscal de campo
@lonewulf44 It is very easy to find. Just go to the city hall, next to that is the Rommel museum. His grave his just accross the street from the city hall. The lady at the reception desk is friendly and will point you in the right direction.
Rommel, você é um herói..
Beautiful
@cyphertek Yes, his son Manfred was the top mayor of Stuttgart from 1974 to 1996.
I'm going to be in Munich next summer, would it be easy to travel and find this site? I would like to pay my respects, but I'm a bit worried about how much time it would take.
A beautiful grave for a great man.
And buried with his beloved Lucie 🥰 An amazing soldier
Look how clean and tidy graves in Germany are , never happen in UK.
A great soldier and líder, salute. Her comandant
EINES DER BESTEN SOLDATEN ;WENN ICH SEIN GESICHT SEHE VON SEHE MUSS MAN STILLSTEHN AUCH NOCH DREI GENERATIONEN DANACH:
In my eyes was Feld Marschall Rommel a pure example of an old Prussian virtue. Devoted but not a natural maniacal killer kinda Reichenau. He was a soldier and did what he was told to. Respect
Will visit the Feldmarschal's grave site this summer.
Very dignified - a fitting memorial in honor of a great Field Marshall . He was a combat soldier, not a NAZI. Deutsche Afrika Korps.
My dream trip to be there, need to pay my respect to the Field Marshall!
@8Wikinger8 I have never owned a German built car. I own a Toyota Siennal My daughters own Toyota Yarsis, and Mazda. This summer I rented a late model Toyota Sienna and 8 of us travelled to Yellowstone National Park. It handled beautifully, was comfortable, and reached 80+ MPH without effort. Highways out west are straight and well maintained and marked for 75 MPH if outside city limits.
Is this difficult to find or get to?
He was a true German patriot.
thats a grave i would wish no-one will ever disrespect
By car, it is approximately 1 hour 45 minute drive from the Munich airport. There are 3 things to do in Herrlingen (near the city of Ulm): the Rommel Museum (limited opening hours - the key is available at the city hall secretary), his grave, and the memorial (where he committed suicide). It is worth the time.
i had the feeling that the cameraman was goose marching as he approached Rommel's grave
un Gran Mariscal de Campo y muy respetado. el puede descansar en paz.
some ppl should be never forgotten. kinda sad but i think that later generations probably wont understand that. And thats how history repeats again...
Un très grand homme, stratège de génie..
Rest in peace, sir
