Comments: The Twenty Thousand Thieves — They were baptised by the traitor Lord Haw-Haw in a hail of fire – and their answer was to steal victory from the Germans at the Battle of El Alamein. Their officers called them a stinking, lazy, drunken rabble – and their friends said that one Christmas day they had burnt down their officers’ mess, made a prisoner of the Colonel and driven off the military police with rifle-fire.
