In this episode, we uncover the chilling final days of Field Marshal Erwin Rommel, the "Desert Fox." From his tactical brilliance in North Africa to his command of the Atlantic Wall, Rommel was a legend of WWII. But behind the propaganda lay a deadly conflict with Adolf Hitler. We dissect the specific moments of defiance—burning the Commando Order, refusing "Victory or Death" directives, and his fatal involvement in the July 20 plot. Discover how the German High Command forced their greatest general to take cyanide to protect his family, covering up the state-ordered murder with a hero's funeral. This is the declassified story of loyalty, betrayal, and the high price of conscience in a totalitarian regime.
