Post; Is this a real Rommel quote?


Hey guys, i saw this on another military foum website and was wondering if this was a true quote by Rommel. I'v done a bit of a search but can't find anything. Thanks for any help.

Quote:
Upon being asked why he was being pushed back by a "Commonwealth" division at El Alamein, Rommel replied,
"It is not a Commonwealth division, it is an Australian Division, why, give me 2 Australian Divisions and i will conquer the world for you!"

Edited - speeling
