Do you mean his Villa in Herrlingen? This is no "farm", it was formerly part of a jewish boarding school.
There are times in history when staying neutral means taking sides.

Hello,
no not his villa in Herrlingen, and the claim about the farm or large estate does not originate from me, but from someone who claims that along other claims for and about Rommel´s visit in Denmark in december 1943. The claim is that Rommel had a large farm / large agricultural estate with cows in the south of Germany?? I - for one - have never heard of it before.

Hi Kurt,
this may be the surrender Fort Querqueville, Cherbourg. See Rommel Papers, p. 81 "...a naval officer with a long black beard...', pictured above, left.
Cheers, Dave

Hello
I have the same picture from an earlier E-Bay auction - with the caption "Cherbourg, Rommel übnernimmt mit 7. Pz. Div 1940". Maybe some one can ID the second Photo? Regards

Hello

These pictures from "Rommel-lebt" http://www.rommel-lebt.com

Indicates that Rommel visited Helgoland in April 1944 - but I do not seem to find any proof for that?

Any one know IF Rommel visited Helgoland?

General Trierenberg would indicate Holland, Ijmuiden:

http://www.lexikon-der-wehrmacht.de/Per ... enther.htm

Marine Flak 242 could be a clue, though!

Marine-Flak-Abteilung 242

Aufgestellt im August 1939 auf Helgoland beim Marine-Abschnitt Helgoland.

Kommandeure:

August 1939 Kapitänleutnant Troll
März 1940 Korvettenkapitän M.A. Hermann Weber
September 1942 Korvettenkapitän M.A. Dr. Titzck
Oktober 1943 Fregattenkapitän Erwin Schneider

So there is some false informations here that does not correspond??

And if not Helgoland - where are these pictures from? I think Gen. d. Flieger Christiansen on the pictures?

Regards
Kurt

Hello
A couple of "Rommel pictures" - not sure of the dates, but maybe 1940 first one, and 1943 second one, could be DAK?

The second photo (page 20): Wilhelm Raapke and Rommel.

The Luftwaffe Leutnant´s name is Pleines :)
