British Officers Observing Artillery, 1942. Second World War. '"...out of Cairo, there has come tonight, the news for which we have been waiting. The news that all the world that fights for freedom has been wanting to hear. The news that the desert and Cairo has been expecting to be let loose all day. The Axis forces in the desert are in full retreat. There's no shadow of doubt about it, the enemy are on the run - and we are after them". Such was the news of the Battle of [El] Alamein, and for the United Nations it was welcome news indeed. The Axis forces in the desert in full flight - gone at last the terrible swinging pendulum of advance and retreat'. From "Time To Remember - The End Of The Beginning", 1942 (Reel 4); documentary film about events of 1942 and America's entry into the war.
