Hitler's Disastrous Desert War

Hitler's Disastrous Desert War - The Crucial Turning Point in WWII: North Africa's Underrated Battlefield could easily be overlooked when discussing the monumental battles of World War II. However, the events in this often-shadowed theater played a pivotal role in shaping the outcome of the war. Initially, it looked like the British Army was on the cusp of defeating Mussolini's beleaguered Italian forces. Hitler, recognizing the need to rejuvenate the Axis campaign, dispatched the Afrika Korps, led by the cunning General Erwin Rommel. For a time, Rommel, also known as the Desert Fox, seemed unbeatable. His strategic brilliance pushed the British to their limits and cast doubt on the fate of North Africa.
