WWII has been one of my interest of topics for years and seriously, Monty credit for that battle is wayyy overrated: they were fighting 10 men vs one and 3 tanks vs one, without mentioning that Rommel had little if no support at all from the Luftwaffen and was crucially lacking repairing pieces; Matter of fact, way previous to that Battle Rommel was staggered by the number of supply pieces the american army had and was providing England with, in his memoirs, he even state that war would be impossible to win for him till he would receive as much supply as the Brits or the Americans.
Indeed, Monty was a good general, just a bit over rated and nowhere as close as Rommel's genius military talking.
