The Battle of El Alamein was a side show
But important for Churchill and the reason he joined the war on the side of
progress, to save the British Empire
After all the Germans had colonies in Africa that had been lost after WW1
Chamberlain was an appeaser and the British ruling class was riddled with
them, seeing Hitler's method of dealing with the organised working class as
their ideal
Mosley had considerable support in East London
William Joyce (Lord Haw Haw) was a councillor in Shoreditch
George Anthony
NB Antony Beevor's book on Stalingrad showed only grudging respect for
the intelligence and bravery displayed by Soviet troops, men and women
What can you expect, he had been an officer in the 11th Hussars
I was a National Serviceman in the Third Hussars, where the officers were
either nitwits or maniacs
