    Quotes

    • "[A] batch of some 50 or 60 Australian prisoners were marched off close behind us — immensely big and powerful men, who without question represented an elite formation of the British Empire, a fact that was also evident in battle."[1]
      Lt. Gen. Erwin Rommel, Commander, German Afrika Korps, Battle of Tobruk, 1941.
