Now this is not the end. It is not even the beginning of the end.

But it is, perhaps, the end of the beginning.

— Winston Churchill after the Battle of El Alamein

 On 20 June 1942 Italian and German forces attacked the British fortifications
around Tobruk, a key city that sat astride the supply lines for both sides. Two
Italian infantry divisions launched diversionary attacks from the west, while the
armoured units massed in the east with more Italian infantry ready to follow up
the breakthrough.
The fight for Tobruk was one of the many critical battles that determined the
fate of North Africa.

They stormed ashore and advanced on Tunisia from the west, sandwiching the
German Afrika Korps and their Italian allies between the US forces and the
British pushing from the east.
On 19 February 1943, the American Second Corps clashed in an epic battle at
Kasserine with the attacking German Panzer Divisions under the command of
