Thanks Steve, I knew all this reading books about WW2 would come in handy. Love these quizzes, they make you go back and read all the stuff again. [img]tongue.gif[/img] [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Okay, here's a quickie for you guys.

Name that famous german who arrived to help the Italians in North Africa.

I want his rank, at the time, his full name (including all his christian names), the date he arrived, and the the airfield he arrived at.

Should be easy.
