My class is doing war crimes trials and I am a prosecutor. I have to prosecute Erwin Rommel, based on the Geneva conventions, despite when the Geneva conventions were written and everything, we're supposed to ignore the fact that they weren't written yet. However, whenever I try to find something on Rommel I find stuff about how he was innocent... So I'm really stuck. I know this is REALLY specific and all, but does anyone know anything about him or know where I can find something? It would help if you had some kind of source (preferably online).

http://www.achtungpanzer.com/gen1.htm is a site I found with tons of information. It's worth a try.

Yeah, they make him sound like he could have won the Miss America Pageant.
From watching the Old war Series World at War, I know that Rommels fighting the allies made the gas chambers and the extermination of the jews possible. The invasion of France was also a war crime.
Tell you what, If it's not due tommorrow, go to your local library and ask a librarian to help you find stuff on Rommel that demonstrates his crimes. Good Luck.

Sorry, I searched the web for awhile and didn't find anything that I thought would be helpful to you. All I can say is keep searching the web. Good Luck
