    Rommel letter to Julius Schaub

    Greetings! <O</O<U5</U5
    <U5<O</O</U5
    I've attached a letter from Rommel (on his command letterhead) to Hitler's Chief Adjutant Julius Schaub. The timing of this letter is shortly after Rommel's defeat at El Alamein while he is in full retreat and frustrated with the lack of support from FHQ. Rommel's signature is in blue pencil (very common) and you can clearly see the acceptance stamp by Schaub's staff as well as a numerical logging stamp in the upper right hand corner. <O</O<U5</U5
    <U5<O</O</U5
    The big question is do you think this is an original letter? Please share your reasons yes or no so we can all learn something here :-) <O</O<U5</U5
    <U5<O</O</U5
    All the best!<O</O<U5</U5

    It does not look good. The signature is off, the font looks odd, and the aging and fading of the paper and ink does not look natural. But see what others think.

          Hi,

          imo, "Rommel + Schaub" is enough to declare the letter fake

          The signature is ugly, and you will find more infos here :

                In fact Rommel had as did many other commanders s very cordial relationship with Schaub.....for obvious reasons.
