I just finished reading about the battle of Point 175 (Totensonntag), near Sidi Rezegh, during the Commonwealth offensive to relieve Tobruk in November ´41, and there were several cases in which captured Valentines were used by Jerry to reconnoiter and attack Kiwi and South African positions.

Picture shows an Israeli Avia downing an Egyptian Spitfire in ´48. Guatemala gave the deciding vote at the UN that year for Israel to become a nation.
