But he put "Virginia" ahead of "America" and proved he was short-sighted in at least one regard. He should stand as an object lesson.

Not contradicting what you are saying, merely adding to it. 


Rommel was a "great tactician" is like saying Ted Bundy was a "great serial killer." One can also value the power of the 79 ACE eruption in Pompeii, and at the same time wish it had never had happened. Vesuvius had an excuse, it was not human. Rommel didn't have an excuse.
