The Fall of Tobruk 1942 | BATTLESTORM Documentary

[@NietzschesMoustache]

At 11:22, you have the metric equivalent of the 2 pounder and 6 pounder guns round the wrong way? The 2 pounder is 40mm and the 6 pounder is 57mm

That feels like the movie "jarhead" where the men itch for combat but are deprived of the thing they as soldiers are supposed to do. And in the end the war end for them without firing a shot. Being captured after that would be even bitter

Thank you TIK. I have looked for accounts of this battle many times. Yours seems the most detailed. My late father was there. He was in 2nd Battalion Royal Durban Light Infantry. I recall him telling us that he bent the barrel of his 303 Lee Enfield rifle in the crevice of a rock and smashed a captured Beretta pistol he had picked up as a souvenier when the order was given. He said that the scariest time of the war was: 1) that one day of battle. 2)The trip to Italy as a POW in the hold of an Italian vessel while the Royal Navy submarines were active and 3) The flight back home in Dakotas with all those freshly trained pilots. There were a lot of plane crashes at that time.

[@haroldwalker9802]

Thanks for the response. I can confirm two aspects of your account. The fleas were said to be terrible. One man accidentally burnt himself to death trying to get rid of the fleas with a petrol fire. The troops felt that they were defenceless against the Luftwaffe. He specifically mentioned the Stukas.

I'm frequently astonished by how much the fog of war and general chaos rules a battlefield. It isn't bad enough that you don't know where the enemy is or when they will arrive, but that uncertainty causes you to do things, such as destroy your radios, which makes the situation so much worse.

The differences between paper strength and combat troops is a really interesting one. The Far East would also suffer even more spectacularly from this too. Also, I love that you give realistic timelines to reorganize, reform and move troops. This showed well during the Stalingrad Battlestorm battle, and continues here too.

The sheer indiscipline and unprofessionalism in the British communications is mind blowing. They often report nothing. When they do report they without exception fail to include vital information. If the wireless sets go down they don't send runners. That is unthinkable to me as a military veteran. We are trained to report anything and everything.

[@tylermorrison420]

I believe this is the biggest takeaway from British land army in ww2

[@johncraig9011]

British com's were bad, yeah, but the British kit , me thinking ,was worse. The 2pounder anti tank, British tanks at the time were coffins against the German 50 and 88 mm , and decision by the British to limit their 90 mm AA gun not to a Anti tank role was worse. In the fall of Tobruk, the chickens came home to roost, big time. Even this presentation by Tik, only hints at the ballsup , that was the 2nd siege of Tobruk. I mean, when the enemy has dive-bombers available in spades, unhindered, pounding the British artillery in the wrong positions on the field of battle, it's no wonder that Tobruk fell after a day.

[@FairladyS130]

At long last a detailed examination of this debacle. It seems that the situation here with Tobruk 2 was similar to Tobruk 1 in regard to the physical defenses, the defending numbers and their equipment. The obvious difference is that Tobruk 2 did not have Tobruk 1's CO who had immediately initiated an active defense policy which certainly did not involve troops hiding in concrete bunkers but rather having them relentlessly patrol in force right up to the Axis positions. So, as I have long suspected, it was the two CO's which made the crucial difference.

[@Rusty_Gold85]

Tobruk 2 had Aussies who would patrol night and day until the Germans lost sleep and fatigue

[@Bullet-Tooth-Tony-]

Meanwhile the one Allied general who could've mounted a successful defence at Tobruk was rotting in an Italian prison...O'Connor really was robbed of destiny. What a shame.

[@lllordllloyd]

Auckinlek could have done it but was theatre commander. It's truly staggering how many garbage officers the British Army produced in the 20th Century.

[@Bullet-Tooth-Tony-]

@@lllordllloyd Yeah when it comes down to it the best officers the British army had were the men who appeared mostly after 1942, ie Horrocks, McCreery, Slim, Roberts etc. O'Connor was just extremely unlucky to get caught so early or he would've been up there with those four in terms of fame.

[@johncraig9011]

Lt.Col. Roy Jerram was the real architect of the plan behind Operation Compass, according to Rea Leakey , a tank commander in the British ground forces, not O'Connor. Maybe O'Connor , gets some credit, for he bought into the plan.

[@mrbaddisLOST]

Thank you Tik! Great insight into the fall of Tobruk and further insight into the myth of Rommel's invulnerability (and the German Panzers in general). Early in the War, Rommel and the Germans success were mostly a result of the inadequacies of their opponents (leadership and communication and organization failures). They certainly had many skill leaders who understood the need for combined arms, mobile warfare, logistics and communication, but Rommel's battles clearly show that he and his commanders could make big errors and were far from invincible.

In 1941, the Australians had 14 infantry battalions defending Tobruk (11 Australian, the 2/1 Australian Pioneer Bn, an ad hoc battalion of Australian admin troops (!) and 18th Indian Cavalry). In 1942 the South Africans had 14 infantry battalions in defence (8 SA, 4 British, 1 Indian, 1 Gurkha). The 1942 defenders had many more tanks, armoured cars, artillery, anti tank and anti aircraft guns than in 1941. And yet the 1941 defenders held out, but the 1942 defenders did not. Why? In 1941, only 8 infantry battalions defended the perimeter. The other 6 provided defence in depth, defending the key positions of Kings Cross, Fort Pilastrino and the road to Derna in the West. Once the Axis forces breached the perimeter, they were held up by this defence in depth being the right places and that allowed a successful counter-attack to occur. The Australians adopted a traditional defensive posture of "2 up, 1 back", and it worked. In 1942, 11 battalions were defending the perimeter and the coast. The 3 battalions in reserve (201 Guards Brigade) were positioned in a place of complete irrelevance. Once the Axis forces breached the perimeter in 1942, there was nothing to stop them. Ultimately Klopper was responsible for this incompetent defensive arrangement that was the key to the failed defence. Incredibly, Klopper was exonerated by a subsequent court of enquiry despite the fact that he didn't know how to set up a traditional defensive arrangement, and he finished his career in 1958 as the chief of staff of the South African army. Don't let a calamitous debacle get the way of your career aspirations! Rommel's order of battle in 1942 included Battlegroup Hecker, which was a motely amphibious force of Brandenburgers and the Italian San Marco Marine battalion. Klopper (and his intelligence officers?) had decided that the Axis main attack would come from the South West and it would be supported by an amphibious landing in the north, hence the over enthusiasm in defending the coast.

[@Bullet-Tooth-Tony-]

@philipmoores4094 Good leadership in one case and poor leadership in the other. Morshead's strategy for the defence in 1941 is actually still studied in colleges to this day, which is quite impressive.

[@johncraig9011]

Bit harsh on Klopper, the fact of the matter, the late change of plans not to abandoned Tobruk is to blame. Amateurs giving their two cents worth , with no military understanding , will add to misunderstanding about what truly happened. Anyway Klopper was only a staff officer (desk general).

[@ReichLife]

Very poor and shallow take. On one hand you completely ignore overall vastly different strategic situation. DAK was in far better position in 1942 than in 1941. On another hand, in 1942 British forces outside Tobruk were in no position whatsoever to support those in the pocket. Wide contrast to 1941 when mere threat of forces outside forced Rommel to commit far more troops to defensive duties aiming towards Egypt. Then there are mines. Mines alone which play fundamental role in slowing down and effectively derailing attacker initiative. Blatant case in 1941. Hardly any in 1942 when minefields were in hopeless state due to various reasons.

[@philipmoores4094]

@@johncraig9011 granted the late of change of plan was a problem. However, that doesn't explain the poor defensive layout, and the lack of depth to the defences. And, whilst I am giving Klopper a hard time, he was the staff officer that oversaw the attack on Bardia (he was awarded the DSO for this). The 2 SA Division ran into problems in that attack when they encountered the Axis reserve forces which blocked the Imperial Light Horse and partly overran the Kaffrarian Rifles. The Bardia attack was not stopped on the perimeter, yet Klopper had no coherent counter-attack plan nor defence in depth.

[@philipmoores4094]

@@ReichLife You make an interesting point. Would the DAK of 1942 been able to breach the Australian defences of 1941? The DAK was smaller in 1941, but so was the level of supporting arms for the Australians. In the May 1941 attack, the DAK committed the entire German force available to attack with the exception of Motor cycle battalion 15. At that point the British were offering no threat outside Tobruk. Mines did help in 1941, but they were effective because the Australians had a decent sized reserve force to cover them as well.

Hi TIK. Love your work. Once you've done the North African campaign, could you do the Malayan-Burmese-Indian theatre of WW2. From Singapore to Imphal/Kohima, "the worst disaster and largest capitulation in British history" according to Churchill, to Britain's Greatest Battle as voted by the British National Army Museum, and then the subsequent Liberation of Burma. The turnaround of the 14th "Forgetten" Army under General Bill Slim is utturly remarkable and needs proper documenting. Also, I think you would find the Falklands War fascinating to do as well. It's the greatest feat of arms and logistics post WW2, filled with combined arms operations, horrible conditions, military catastrophes and some notable military firsts as well.
