Overview:
The second battle of El Alamein had been raging for nine days, forcing the Afrika Korps to send it's mobile reserves to the heavy fighting near the coast. This depletion of forces in the central and southern sectors of the frond was noticed by the British, who had been waiting for such a move. The shift northward left a large proportion of the Axis south in the hands of Italian defenders, without much of the standard 'corseting" of German troops around them. The second phase of the British battleplan was codenamed Operation Supercharge. The concept was to punch a hole in the extensive minefields and leapfrog two Armoured Divisions into the German/Italian rear echelon troops and supplies while the bulk of the German armour was away to the in the north. Supercharge had the additional benefit of striking at the inherently weak junction between the Germans and Italians. At 1 AM on the 2nd, the assault began. With the sky marked by artillery explosions and burning vehicles, the 9th Armoured Brigade rumbled forward.Attacker: British (9th Armoured Brigade and 152nd Infantry Brigade)
Defender: German (21st Panzer Division and DAK AA Battalion 28)
