Overview:
On the morning of the 3rd day of the British offensive, Wavell's men turned their attention to the defenses of Sidi Barrani itself, pushing forward with all haste -- and sending the tanks and men forward without waiting for the artillery to catch up. As the British moved on, heavy winds picked up the fine sand and visibility soon shut down to fifty yards. While the sandstorms worsened, the 1st Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders of the 6th Brigade too on the task of cutting the coast road west of Sidi Barrani. They arrived just after noon on the 10th, looking forward to a break. No such luck. They arrived just before an advancing column of Italian Blackshirts.Attacker: Italian (Elements 4th CCNN Blackshirt Division)
Defender: British (Elements 1st Argyll & Sutherland Highlanders & 8th Hussars)
