Best Answer

General Erwin Rommel

(he became Field Marshal Later) General Rommel did not lead the Germans "into" North Africa. He joined the German forces there after they were sent to help the Italians. At first, the Germans and General Rommel were under the command of the Italian Commando Supremo. It wasn't until Hitler promoted Rommel to Field Marshal was he the highest ranking general officer in Italy.
