Surrounded by German and Italian forces, the men of the Tobruk garrison, mostly Australians, withstood tank attacks, artillery barrages, and daily bombings.
They endured the desert's searing heat, the bitterly cold nights, and hellish dust storms.
On this page you will find on various stories written by our RATS with their personal views and stories.
He lies
With unseeing eyes to face the rising sun.
Let him rest quiet
His day is done.
Seek not to smooth the ruffled hair
To move his hands from where they clutch
The soil
Seek not to close the sightless eyes
The battle's over now - He lies
The spoil.
From: "STANDTO" and other War Poems.
