Trim, broad-faced Erwin Eugen Johannes Rommel rose with Hitler from the street brawls of pre-Nazi Germany. He rocketed upward with the National Socialists through the conquest of Germany, the conquest of Europe, the conquest of North Africa, almost to the conquest of Egypt...
...Died. Eugen Steinach, 83, Viennese sex "rejuvenator," in Territet, Switzer land.

The Scharnhorst's sister, Gneisenau; the so-called "pocket battleship" Admiral Scheer; the heavy cruisers Prinz Eugen and Admiral Hipper-all these have been damaged repeatedly by bombs and torpedoes, are of dubious fighting value. The pocket battleship Lutzow was torpedoed in 1941, but may be fit for service again. Despite the catchy description, she is no battleship, but an armored cruiser of around 12,000 tons. For the rest, aside from...
