Hello

Does any one know of the Brothers (Karl and Gerhard) to GFM Rommel, and perhaps their military Records?

Pictures from GFM Rommels funeral, where his Brothers attended along side of the widow and son of Rommel.

(Pictures from IWM - Imperial War Museum).

Regards
Kurt

The one armed officer is NOT ROMMEL´s brother but oberst (later Gen.Maj) Alfred KUZMANY Kdt.v.Ulm.

Cheers.

Hello

Thanks for the correction (the caption of the Photo is clearly wrong), who is the other one then, which of the Brothers - because i dont think any of them looked like the Brothers (comparing to the very few Photos of them there is to be found)?

Regards
Kurt

I believe the other man, to the right, is Rommels friend Oskar Farny.
