British Eighth - N. Africa (1 Viewer)

[WesternOutlaw]

The year is 1943; the place, the border between Libya and Tunisia. The Eighth Army, one of the most well-known formations of the British Army during World War II, have just defeated General Erwin Rommel's Afrikakorps in the decisive Second Battle of El Alamein. The next battle along the Mareth defensive line would be the end of the Axis powers in N. Africa.
