LIbya - Eighth Army Routs Rommel

A segment of a 1942 newsreel produced by the now-defunct and disappeared "Official Films," a production company that most often used government-created films to make documentaries and newsreels for the public, this clip shows combat in North Africa between British and American forces against the Nazi Afrika Corps led by Rommel. WARNING: CONTAINS VIEWS OF ACTUAL DEAD SOLDIERS. Some shots probably staged, but also actual combat footage. Posted for historical education, discussion and critique.
