In fact, I wouldn’t be surprised if Shirer used “The Rommel Papers” as his reference for this passage.

Note footnote #20 in the 3rd paragraph of my excerpt.

"Ibid. [Speidel, Invasion 1944] pp. 93-94, on which this account is largely based. Gen. Blumentrit, Rundstedt's chief of staff, has also left an account, and there is additional material in The Rommel Papers,, ed. by Liddell Hart, p. 479."

Oh what the heck; I'll post it anyway:

B.H. Liddell-Hart The Rommel Papers p. 478-479.
