  2. Probably controversial because his image is in total contrast to his actual performance. Read Bradley's comments on his behaviour in Sicily, or any accurate account of his campaign in Lorraine.

  3. Rommel's book was about infantry tactics. Moreover, Patton encountered neither Rommel nor men trained by Rommel. 10 Panzer at el Guettar was part of von Arnim's 5th Panzer Army, and had only arrived in Tunisia in December, 1942.
