Clash of the Titans in Libya
(Liberty Magazine, 1942)
This is a primary source article by a reporter who rode in the armored vehicles of the British Army during the Libyan campaign of 1942:
“It seemed incredible that in the melee either side could know whom or what they were firing at. The best I could do was identify the burning tanks: white smoke for the petrol-driven British – black smoke for the Diesel oil of the German tanks. There was plenty of both.”
