Best Answer

Hitler did not kill Erwin Rommel, He requested for him to be killed. He gave him other options because of his time in the Afrika Korps. Suicide or Trial. Rommel chose suicide and took a poisonous pill that killed him. He only told his son and wife about the up-coming event. The rest of the world thought he died of a Brain Seizure on the way to a meeting.
