Why Rommel Said Patton Was the Only Allied Commander He Studied Before Every Single Battle

The premise is not historically supported. There is no record of Rommel saying he studied Patton, let alone before every battle. The two never commanded against each other — Rommel left North Africa on 9 March 1943, before Patton took over II Corps. The famous "Rommel, you magnificent bastard, I read your book" line is from the 1970 Patton film, and even that is Patton reading Rommel, not the reverse. If you build a script on this title, the comments section will dismantle it, and YouTube's own misinformation guidance frowns on metadata that asserts fabricated claims as fact.
