Little correction here, 7th Panzer Division was given under the command of Rommel after Blitzkrieg in Poland. It was named "Ghost Division" (Gespensterdivision) because it rolled through France in no time and because no Frenchmen new where it would hit next.

Just the two cents of the history freak :)

I stand corrected. I guess I don’t know my history as well as I thought.

Time to crack the ol’ books again.
