You left out some very important details. After the stunning success of the British against the Italians, you forgot to mention that after the arrival of Rommel, Hitlers favourite commander, his subsequent success were greatly helped by the anti British American attaché in Egypt. Named Bonner Fellows, who was know sarcastically as 'little Fellows' by Rommel. Fellow sent detailed broadcasts of British positions and strengths which were leaked to Rommel which greatly inflated his subsequent successes. After this was discovered and Fellows returned to America, Rommels successes also greatly reduced until he was driven from North Africa completely. This was the biggest defeat of Nazi forces and not equalled untill Stalingrad.
