He has long ranked as a hero throughout the world: Erwin Rommel, also known as the "Desert Fox". In Berlin on the 2nd of October 1942 Rommel was presented with the Field Marshal's baton by Hitler. Rommel appeared to be a loyal follower of the regime - but appearances were deceptive. He no longer believed victory was possible in North Africa, and would soon come to doubt Hitler himself. Part 2 follows Rommel's drive to push back British troops in North Africa in 1942 and his subsequent return to Germany, due to bad health. Investigation into the Desert Fox's reputation as a strategist, asking whether he began making serious tactical errors as British reinforcements in Egypt threatened his country's military supremacy.
