Who were the best officers of World War 2?
Douglass McArthur (US) Erwin Rommel (Germany) George Patton (US)
Was the general Erwin Rommel Desert fox a Nazi or was just a German general?
He was a Nazi, but far from the worst of them. Usually to get to be a general an officer has to successfully complete army schools, such as the Command and General Staff College in the US Army. The Germans actually were the first army to have this type of professional education, with their Kriegsakademie. Officers are picked to go to these schools, based on the evaluations of their commanders. You can't just apply and get in. Almost every German general of WWII had been to these schools, but not Rommel. His commanders did not think he had the potential. Rommel was an obscure colonel commanding Hitler's bodyguard when the Fuhrer promoted him to general for his loyalty. In 1944 Rommel was approached by the anti-Hitler plotters among the German officer corps, who tried to kill Hitler on July 20. Rommel rebuffed the plotters. But he did not report them, and for this, the Gestapo forced him to commit suicide, by threatening his family.

What Us general defeated Rommel in North Africa?
In late 1942, Rommel's Africa Korps was advancing eatward in north Africain an effort to seize the Suez canal when his forces were defeated by General Bernard Montgomery, commander of the British Eighth Army. Following that battle, Rommel retreated westward, with the Allied forces in pursuit. The final major battle in north Africa occurred in March, 1943 at Medidine in Tunisia, where Montgomery's Eighth Army routed the Afrika Korps, following which General Rommel returned to Germany shortly before the Axis forces in north Africa surrendered to the Allies. Following Rommel's return to Germany he began to express his conviction that Germany was fighting a lost cause and became associated with individuals who were plotting to oust Hitler and make peace with the Allies. Following an unsuccessful attempt to assassinate Hitler in July, 1944, several of the participants implicated General Rommel in the plot and some members of his staff were executed. Not wanting it known that a hero of Rommel's status was involved in the plot against him, Hitler approved a plan to give Rommel the choice between suicide or arrest for treason. Rommel chose the former and took a fatal dose of poison supplied by the messengers who delivered the ultimatum to him on October 14, 1944.

What happened to Karl rommel?
Karl Rommel (the famous German General Erwin Rommel's elder brother) was a decorated pilot during WWI. The last documented evidence of his still being alive is a letter he wrote to Erwin in 1944. Being a private citizen even then, nothing is known of what happened to him afterwards. If he survived the war (opinions vary on this) he probably lived out his life until sometime in the 1960's. He had 2 sons and a daughter; rumours are that one of them may have emigrated to the US.
