Fuck you, Scheisse, don’t give us the raw prawn! Since you can’t stand us so much, I would like to drop you off in the Simpson Desert, with no water. Even the Aborigines wouldn’t help you, if you make sure you call them cretins, tell them how much you hate them.
A certain German named Rommel saw us rather differently: “Shortly afterwards a batch of some fifty or sixty Australian prisoners were marched off close beside us — immensely big and powerful men, who without question represented an élite formation of the British Empire, a fact that was also evident in battle. Enemy resistance was as stubborn as ever and violent actions were being fought at many points. All the same, I continued for some time to think that we would be able to maintain our attack and take Tobruk”.
