RATING:

The First Battle of El Alamein (1–27 July 1942) was a battle of the Western Desert Campaign of the Second World War, fought in Egypt between Axis forces (Germany and Italy) of the Panzer Army Africa (Panzerarmee Afrika) (which included the Afrika Korps under Field Marshal (GeneralfeldmarschallErwin Rommel) and Allied (British Imperial and Commonwealth) forces (Britain, British India, Australia, South Africa and New Zealand) of the Eighth Army (GeneralClaude Auchinleck).

The British prevented a second advance by the Axis forces into Egypt. Axis positions near El Alamein, only 106km from Alexandria, were dangerously close to the ports and cities of Egypt, the base facilities of the Commonwealth forces and the Suez Canal. However, the Axis forces were too far from their base at Tripoli in Libya to remain at El Alamein indefinitely, which led both sides to accumulate supplies for more offensives, against the constraints of time and distance.

At 01:00 on 1 July, 90th Light Infantry Division advanced east but strayed too far north and ran into the 1st South African Division's defences and became pinned down.The 15th and 21st Panzer Divisions of the Afrika Korps were delayed by a sandstorm and then a heavy air attack. It was broad daylight by the time they circled round the back of Deir el Abyad where they found the feature to the east of it occupied by 18th Indian Infantry Brigade which, after a hasty journey from Iraq, had occupied the exposed position just west of Ruweisat Ridge and east of Deir el Abyad at Deir el Shein late on 28 June to create one of Norrie s additional defensive boxes.

After successfully defending around the El Alamein the 2nd Armoured Division started its big counterattack.

UNITED KINGDOM 7TH ARMORED DIVISION PREVENTS SECOND ADVANCE OF AXIS FORCES INTO EGYPT

 

Fifty-Two brave British soldiers returned today after clashing with Axis forces within Egypt at what would be known as the Battle of Alamein. Medical personal were able to save the lives of sixteen soldiers today. Due to superior medical training and communication, they are now resting easily. Eighty-nine Axis soldiers are now resting in their graves alongside their tanks tonight. Seven of our British tanks have been decommissioned following the battle. We send our condolences to the eight men and their families that died serving our country in the Battle of Alamein.
