Rommel was a WWII Nazi Germany general. He was famous for his tank, and defensive tactics. Eventually he tried to kill Hitler with others and when it failed he was killed (basically) so not just any guy!
@iceberg210 I don't think Erwin Rommel was the Rommel being cited in this song. Apart from anything else, he was long dead before he could have ever spoken to Neil, and furthermore, while he may have been able to drive a tank, I certainly never heard of him flying a plane.
