Rommel the Desert Fox
"A tireless fighter in the cause of the Feührer and the
Reich." So said General von Runstedt of Erwin Rommel, Germany's most
gifted general and one of the most distinguished and respected soldiers of
the Twentieth Century. For his inspired leadership of the Afrika Korps, he
would forever be known by friend and foe alike as the Desert Fox.
Rommel showed early signs of his potential when, in 1915, he earned the
coveted Iron Cross 1st Class for an audacious battlefield action. Early
1940 found him waist deep in the River Meuse, heading the 7th Panzers
'Ghost Division' in Belgium: Rommel would never ask his troops to do what
he himself would not. Using revolutionary tactics, he rewrote the rules of
tank warfare and many times overcame superior odds.
But it was at the head of Panzer Group Afrika - the famed Afrika Korps
- that Rommel shaped history, single-handedly reversing the course of the
North African war. In a theatre where the elements also constituted a very
real enemy, Rommel remained one step ahead of both adversaries until El
Alamein.
After failing to persuade Hitler to abandon the doomed Fortress Europe
strategy, Rommel took poison when he was implicated in a murder plot to
save his leader the embarrassment of a public trial - a noble end to a
legendary career. The story of that career is told here using rare archive
footage, much of which has been unavailable in the West since World War
II.

Hitler's Secret Weapons
The story of the development of Hitler's secret armoury.
As the Second World War progressed, the race for scientific
intelligence, secrecy and detection brought a new dimension to warfare.
The pilotless flying bomb, or V1 emerged as the first of Hitler's new
weapons, and a brief but terrifying period rained death and destruction on
the South of England until the RAF and anti-aircraft gunners learnt to
counter the terrible doodlebug.
With the Allies closing in from the West, and the Eastern front
crumbling, Hitler realised Germany was losing the war and his response was
to give top priority to the VII. Pioneered by Werner Von Braun, it was one
of the greatest advances in the technology of warfare. Capable of being
launched from anywhere, Hitler pinned his hopes on this early rocket, but
the VII came too late, draining Germany's resources and ultimately failing
to alter the course of Hitler's war.
Against a background of the famous campaigns which led to his eventual
defeat, this video shows spectacular archive footage of Hitler's secret
armoury as it was being developed, tested and finally used in anger. |

Hitler's War Part 1 1940-43
By June 3rd 1940, Hitler's dream of mastery in Europe had come true as
he triumphantly took Paris after only ten months of war, and then launched
his ultimate plan for an Eastern Front. Opposed by the twin forces of the
invincible Russian winter and the indomitable Russian soldier, the German
army froze and starved outside Moscow.
Encouraged by Japan's entry into the war, Hitler's hopes lay in a
speedy spring offensive, but weakened elsewhere by the disastrous Battle
of the Atlantic, defeats in North Africa, the British bombing offensive,
and certain war with the U.S., his 6th Army was crushed and forced to
retreat from the Red Army battalions. His resolve unshaken, Hitler bows to
the need to re-arm, and in 1943 German teeth are clenched as the struggle
begins to reestablish supremacy by any means. This video narrates Hitler's
early war, using much newly discovered footage including colour material
shot by Eva Braun at the Berghof.
