THE BATTLE - Battle of El Alamein:  General Montgomery launched a British attack in the south in order to divert the Axis forces away from the main attack in the north where the British would attempt to cut two corridors through the extensive minefields so that the armoured divisions could pass through and exploit the gaps. However, progress was slow and A change of tactics was ordered to fight what Montgomery called the 'crumbling' battle. The main emphasis of the attack was regularly switched to keep Rommel guessing and therefore chip away at the front line. On the 26th October the 9th Australian Division drew the Axis forces toward them along the coastal road. Using this attack , Montgomery launched a new attack further south, with the German armoury forced into what turned into a major tank battle. With only 30 working tanks left, Rommel withdrew his forces on the 4th November. Hampered by heavy downpours of rain and low on fuel the British were unable to stop Rommel from escaping.

THE BATTLE - Battle of Gazala  The most convincing defeat of the British forces during the whole desert campaigns of World War Two. The front line ran south from the coastal town of Gazala, about 95 km west of Tobruck, to the oasis of Bir Hacheim. In May 1942 Field Marshal Rommel launched an attack against Gazala using two diversionary Italian corps at the north end of the line while the two other corps (the Afrika and Italian corps) corps veered towards Tobruck from the southern end of the line. Although surprised the British forces fought well, inflicting heavy casualties on the German forces and cornering them. Finding himself trapped between a minefield and the British defences, Rommel was on the verge of surrender. The Italian Trieste Division, however, were able to create a supply route through the minefield to the cornered German forces allowing them to be take on supplies. Helped by British indecision, Rommel managed to break through the Cauldron area and overwhelm the British defences. The British counter attack was confused and useless, easily defeated by the German forces who then continued onto Tobruck. Rommel defeated many British forces on the way and eventually the British abandoned their positions and retreated to the El Alamein line.
