1944 14 One morning in June, German marshal Rommel, who was waiting for Hitler's order at home, received bad news: he was accused of murdering the Fuehrer. In view of Rommel's meritorious military service, Hitler gave him two choices: one was to be tried by the court, and the other was to commit suicide by taking poison. If Rommel accepts suicide, a state funeral will be held for him after his death, and his family will enjoy a marshal's pension.

Rommel chose the latter without hesitation. After explaining to his wife and son, he hugged his wife for the last time and got into the car that came to pick him up. 15 minutes later, Rommel committed suicide by taking poison in the car at the age of 53. On his deathbed, he fulfilled his promise to his wife: to love her is like loving his own life.

Lucy didn't like Rommel with a serious face at first. But it wasn't long before Rommel made her laugh, and they soon fell in love.

After five years of romance, they got married on1October 27th1916165438+. On the Christmas Eve of 1928, Lucy gave birth to Rommel's only son Manfred.

Rommel participated in two world wars and spent most of his life separated from his beloved, which deepened Rommel's love for his wife. Rommel loved war, but he loved his wife even more. Wherever he goes, no matter where he fights, he always holds his wife's photo in his arms and takes it out from time to time. No matter how busy the war is, Rommel always writes to his wife to express his love. He wrote thousands of letters, at least once a day and sometimes twice. The manuscript paper is randomly selected from the office or the command post. Lucy's letters are very detailed, and she often calls until two or three in the middle of the night.
