Rommel Sitting with His Officer in France 1940

Generalmajor Erwin Rommel (Kommandeur 7. Panzer-Division) in France 1940. This picture is one of 854 photographs from the Rommel Photograph Collection located in the US National Archives and Records Administration (NARA).  The photographs depict military activities in the French campaign and were taken by various German photographers and copies provided to General Rommel as a courtesy.  There are photos of equipment and troops in action, landscape scenes, as well as photos of Rommel and a few other German leaders.  The collection contains scanned jpeg images of every photograph of the French campaign in the NARA collection (except for the duplicates).  Includes images of 12 Heinrich Hoffman photographs of Rommel’s visit with Hitler.  Each photo was scanned at 600 dpi and if captioned, the reverse was scanned at 150 dpi.  Since most photographs in the collection are not captioned, the scans are not cataloged, although they are organized by photograph type and, when possible, grouped by subject.  Some of the photographs are dated and captioned in German.

Rommel with His Panzer Officers in France

Divisionskommandeur Rommel is having a casual discussion with his officers from the Panzer-Regiment 25 / 7.Panzer-Division near the banks of the river Seine (France), mid-June 1940. From left to right: Major Franz von Lindenau (Kommandeur I.Abteilung / Panzer -Regiment 25), Oberst Karl Rothenburg (Kommandeur Panzer-Regiment 25), Major Casimir Kentel (Kommandeur II.Abteilung / Panzer-Regiment 25), Hauptmann Adelbert Schulz (Chef 1.Kompanie / I.Abteilung / Panzer-Regiment 25), Generalmajor Erwin Rommel (Kommandeur 7. Panzer-Division), and Major iG Otto Heidkämper (Ia Erster Generalstabsoffizier 7. Panzer-Division). In the Battle of France, 7. Panzer-Division was equipped with outdated Czechoslovakian tanks (some of them are visible in the background). The division, resuming its advance on 5 June, drove for the River Seine to secure the bridges near Rouen. Advancing 100 kilometres (62 mi) in two days, the division reached Rouen to find the bridges destroyed. From here they moved north, blocking the westward route to Le Havre and the Operation Cycle evacuations and forcing over 10,000 men of the 51st (Highland) Division, French 9th Army Corps and other supporting troops to surrender at Saint-Valery-en-Caux on 12 June.
