British will take it over. British Protect Supplies

The outstanding highlights emerging from the first five days of are the following: Supplies: The objective on both sides was to get at one another's supply columns the Germans to

cilitate their own advance; the Brite ish to destroy them in hopes of the enemy tanks through lack of fuel The Germans failed in their ef. forts to capture the British fuel This battle has been raging indeed scorched earth; there are no convenient filling sta-

Failed to Take Base

If the German pangers (the 21st jand 15th armored divisions which {carried out a deep penetration into British territory around Frenchheld Bir Hacheim from the south) had succeeded in taking a fortified “island,” such as the place called Knightsbridge or Acroma, they would have had a base whence to continue their advance. But they failed to take any of these “islands.” which were planned to be defended against attacks from any direction Minefields: The immense mine field extending between the northern section of the front to Knightsbridge and on through to Bir Hacheim has played, and continues to play, an important role in the fighting German pangers looped around Bir Hacheim in the south precisely to avoid this great minefield. They then swung northward, up the east side of the minefield, while the Italian Ariete, armored, force atitacked the free French at Bir Hacheim at great cost and while! German sappers worked feverisialy | from the west to open a passage through the minefield to shorten (the axis supply route to its tanks] land also to ensure a back exit in case of need. | Subsequently, the Germans] [cleared a second channel through | the minefield; both routes about a (mile wide and both under British and allied artillery fire and bombings and strafing from the air. In this flat desert the corridors | through the minefields have the | same importance as defiles in a | mountainous country. They have to help defend the juicy targets for | aviation and artillery. | On May 31 German some tanks streamed homeward through gaps in the minefield under a hail of fire while the
