Do you think this is Rommel?

Article about: It sure looks like Rommel to me - except for one thing. He is not wearing General's collar tabs. I guess it could be an older foto - before he was made a General. What do YOU think? Thanks

    I have lots of Rommel images, but I am just not sure. Something looks different to me. I have seen other Officers purported to be Rommel that clearly weren't him, including a guy in a Luftwaffe cap! Anybody else have an opinion?

    Not Rommel. Completely different profile and the shape of the ears is wrong, they are a good reference for identifying individuals as the basic shape remains the pretty much the same throughout life.

    Looking for LDO marked EK2s and items relating to U-406.....

    I'd vote for 'no'.

    The mouth and chin area looks too different to any Rommel photos i've seen.

    I agree its the mouth and chin that do it for me too, so who is this guy?

    I don't know who he is, but he is being sold on ebay as Rommel. Thanks to all that confirmed what I was thinking, myself!
