Benghazi Falls As Rommel Flees Advancing British

Battered Benghazi, for the third time in British hands, falls before Montgomery's ever rolling Eighth 8th Army. A swastika gives way to the Union Jack. War weary natives welcome signs of Allied victory.

Axis supply ships, blasted by the R.A.F. still smoking in the harbor. The port, one of the finest on the North African coast, was abandoned by Rommel without a fight. Now, wrecked ships are all that's left of what once was one of Rommel's biggest bases. The harbor of Benghazi symbol of the fall of the fascist empire in Africa.
