Description
WESTERN DESERT - ITALIAN PRISONERS TAKEN DURING WESTERN DESERT CAMPAIGN DID NOT SEEM TO REGRET THEIR CAPATIVITY & WERE APPARENTLY IN A CHEEFUL FRAME OF MIND. THEIR ONLY REGRET - THEY LEFT THEIR CIGARETTES BEHIND IN THEIR RETREAT, SO BRITISH TOMMIES REMEDIED THE DEFECT WITH CAPTURED ONES. (PHOTOGRAPHED BY F. HURLEY).
