Interesting. The British communique has Rommel at Tobruk and west of Tobruk at Gazala. Everybody else, including reality, has the DAK at Tobruk, and at the Egyptian border-at least 70 miles east of Tobruk. Still no mention of Rommel by name. By anyone.

Who are you going to believe - the NY Times and the British High Command or a bunch of lyin' history books? Reality needs to get with the program.

Still no mention of Rommel by name. By anyone.

As Cougar pointed out yesterday, on April 10 the German High Command issued a bulletin that mentioned Erwin Rommel commanded a division in Libya.

Aside from that single sentence from the 10th of April, Rommel is completely non-existent. I’m trying to remember now, was he mentioned in the reports on the capture of the 51st Highlander Division last June? I might have to go look into that.
