@MilHist_Shane this was almost certainly during the ambushes of Vorausabteilungen Knabe and Geißler, sent to establish contact with Bardia after Rommel mistakenly thought he had won the battle outside Tobruk, and defeated Opertaion CRUSADER thereby. #desertwar #MilitaryHistory #ww2history #ww2 #northafrica https://rommelsriposte.com/2009/02/08/getting-it-very-badly-wrong/

On 11 November 1941 an Order of Battle (Kriegsstärkenachweisung - KStN) was produced for the #Afrikakorps Division z.b.V. Afrika (Special purpose division Africa), which just over two weeks later was to become the much more famous #90thlight 90. leichte Division. At this time it was barely a brigade, practically immobile, lacking heavy weapons and standard supply items. #ww2 #desertwar #1941 #northafrica #tobruk #rommel #eightharmy https://crusaderproject.wordpress.com/2009/08/15/order-of-battle-division-z-b-v-afrika-africa-special-purpose-division-10-november-41/

9 November 1941 saw the destruction of the #italian #navy Duisburg or BETA convoy by the #royalnavy Force K, consisting of two light cruisers and two destroyers operating out of #Malta. It was a crucial blow in advance of ground operations in the #Tobruk sector commencing. #WW2 #desertwar #navalhistory #history @histodons
We have published some of the operational reports by HMS Aurora http://rommelsriposte.com/2009/02/07/force-k-report/

Giving this thing a whirl. The aim is to crosspost and share information on #operationcrusader during the #desertwar, which was in the final throes of preparation this time in 1941, 81 years ago.
