M3 Stuart Light Tank Platoon As well as serving with US armored divisions in the light battalions of the armored regiments, thousands of M3 Light Tanks were supplied to Britain and the Soviet Union.

8. Panzerregiment during the Battle of Gazala In early January 1942, after being resupplied and refitted, the DAK went on the offensive against the British. In two weeks the DAK had retaken Benghazi (January 29) and had moved almost 350 miles. The offensive slowed as the Germans reached the British position at Gazala. The British position stretched from Gazala to Bir Hacheim in a network of heavily mined and fortified lines. The front settled here for the rest of Winter until May 1942, when Rommel once again launched an offensive against the British. 8. Panzerregiment during the Battle of Gazala...

The Cauldron, 6 June 1942  In May 1942 the Afrika Korps outflanked Eighth Army’s defences at Gazala. For the next week a fierce battle raged as British armour attacked the Afrika Korps, who in turn were reducing the British defences for their supplies to get through. On 5 June 1942 a full scale attack was made by Eighth Army’s armoured brigades against Afrika Korps. The 107th Royal Horse Artillery (South Notts Hussars) and the Northumberland Fusiliers (a motor battalion) were to provide support for the British armour. They deployed to the east of the Aslagh ridge, and bombarded targets over the ridge. The Cauldron, 6 June 1942...
