El Alamein: A Tactician's Paradise

S1 E5: In 1942, two of the most charismatic generals of all time, General Erwin Rommel, the Desert Fox, and General Bernard Montgomery fought over a barren stretch of rocky desert in the Egyptian desert. The battle was to turn Rommel's fortunes in North Africa and give the British their first decisive win of the war. The Battle of El Alamein became a personal duel, with each man determined to outwit the other.
