Talk:List of North African campaign battles

Rommell's First Offensive

The article currently states:

Rommel's First Offensive (Part of which is known as Operation Sonnenblume)

However from sources i have read they only refer to Sonneblume as the transportation of the Afrika Korps and elements of the Luftwaffe to North Africa and nothing to do with his attack.

Is there any sources which state that this operation also covered his initial attack across the deseert? --EnigmaMcmxc (talk) 12:36, 2 March 2008 (UTC)

You are correct, operation Sonnenblume was just the transportation portion. Tstarnes (talk) 18:45, 10 March 2008 (UTC)TStarnes

Naming of Battles

For example, the First, Second, Third etc Battle of Fort Capuzzo. Is this actually correct? Does any literature name them as so or is it approbirate to do so? --EnigmaMcmxc (talk) 12:39, 2 March 2008 (UTC)

I would say it is appropriate to distinguish the separate clashes. The different conflicts over the fort occurred during different campaigns and often involved different units. Since there was so much conflict over this small piece of land, I think it would help to somehow distinguish the separate conflicts Tstarnes (talk) 18:50, 10 March 2008 (UTC)TStarnes

Civilians?

How were North African civilians affected by the Allies-Axis back-and-forth battles? Acwilson9 (talk) 03:27, 19 February 2019 (UTC)
