after he returned from active duty
on the Lihyan front
Lodge. reserve major who had

"Rommel never puts all his eggs
in one basket. lie never made up
his mind inflexibly 10 do or die
with one specific move. He never
fully committed himself 10 any
prescribed tactics.
"Rommel would start several
thrusts at once, and throw his
strength into whichever seemed to
be progressing most fayorably. lie
picked his holes like a good smart
football player. and dived into the
likeliest with everything he had.
In the Libyan campaign ROM
mers ace was that the British
never knew where he was or what
to expect next. He'd throw up some
tanks there, some smoke over
there. some planes here. and then
bang home in the confusion. His
advantage was that he wasn't try
ing to storm prepared positions,

"In Egypt right now we've got
pretty fair idea of where Rommel
is and what he's doing. And he -

storming that prepared position.
In Libya he rarely stormed. He
preferred to infiltrate around his
objective. cut off supplies and wa
ter. and make his move when the
British were thoroughly weak

Lodge says that much of ROM

attributable to the click-clack

base e-fortress, which has with

The droves of German planes
were backing up a sustained land
offensive, but the Russians said the
Nazis had suffered heavy losses and
had been stopped by combined
Soviet land and air defenses.
The Nazis have a two-fold
purpose in striving to reduce the
Sevaspotol stronghold, which
would justify the huge cost OF
men and machines piled up on
its unyielding defenses through
repeated stabs.
Capture of Sevastopol would
eliminate a dangerous Russian
