1. The reason why Rommel is not seen here as a hero is, because if he would have been sucessful, the german army would have beaten the english army, who was fighting a just war.
The Wehrmacht was fighting an unjust war.
You cannot divide strategic abilities from the aim that you have. The aim of the Wehrmacht was occupation of half of the world.
2. I believe we have our national pride. Just watch TV during the football european championships. We maybe do not believe that our land is the home of the brave. But our land is the home of midfielder and scorer Michael Ballack. Fear us!
But I think of course we should be a little more pathetic about our national symbols, as the “Bundesrepublik” is a real sucess story.
