    Hello.

    I'm looking for After Action Reports of the Operation Compass. Does this kind of document exist?
    Are there documents with materiel captured, POW's, etc?
    Did the units involved write some kind of "lessons learned" documents?

    I'm very interested in any reports on the capture of Nibeiwa, Bardia, Tobruk, etc.

    Does this kind of material exist, and if so where is available?

    Thank you for any help or pointers.

    regards,

    ALL actions generated an After Action Report - usually written by I.O. and sent off to Brigade and Division - probably ends up at Intelligence - somewhere

    Cheers

    These two documents could well be the same, but it's a start:

    Thank you for your replies.
    It seems WO 106/2136 and WO 201/349 might be a goldmine.
    Anyone has an idea of it's content?
