by British Army (Author), War Office (Author), Bruce Oliver Newsome (Editor)
This is an uncensored facsimile of the official wartime edition of a diary, kept from November 16th to December 31st, 1941, by a Public Relations Officer, whose job was to conduct a party of newspaper correspondents into battle. One of his party writes:
" 'I saw' are fine words for the newspaper man...This time we certainly saw...saw Rommel's tank force charging our positions at Sidi Omar and destroyed by a handful of British gunners; saw thousands of vehicles charging into Libya like destroyers in smoke-screens; saw the Poles beginning to redress their wrongs, saw the Indian Brigadechase the enemy fifty miles in one day, saw the shambles on Derna aerodrome, saw the entry into Benghazi. And that our little party of war correspondents was able to see what watching civilisation so hungrily desired to read was largely due to zeal, foresight, courage and energy of our conducting officer, Captain Sean Fielding of the Green Howards, the writer of this diary' "
