The 28th Maori Battalion in WWII were native New Zealanders. German General Edwin Rommel the “Desert Fox” described them as the most formidable infantry units he had ever encountered in battle. Their heroic story needs to be told.

Yep, you are correct except it was Erwin Rommel. I still knew who you meant.
Hope you're still doing well!
