Plot: What's the story about?
After British forces defeat Italian forces in North Africa, Germany taps German Field Marshal Erwin Rommel to drive eastward along the North African coast to seize the Suez Canal. British forces are routed, and it comes down to a stand at El-Alamein. There, Britain's Eighth Army in North Africa, led by Bernard Montgomery, keeps the Germans bottled up and unable to overrun Egypt. After several long, bloody battles, and with assistance from Australian and New Zealand forces, the Allies win the day. Rommel signals Hitler that the cause is lost. He is not granted permission to retreat but begins withdrawing troops, leaving the Italians alone to be trounced by allied forces.
