I think Hitler wanted Gibraltar but had difficulty with neutral Spain. So logistic minded ones, how long would it take for Germany to starve out or seriously weaken the forces on Malta and Crete before an invasion, blockade, siege style? The clock was ticking and time wasn't on Germany's side. Had the invasions been successful and less casualties of Fallschirmjäger, what other campaigns battles do you think these troops would be used in? Drops into Egypt with a bled British Air Defense?
