This is from an El Alamien and the OOB lists the allies first.
The second line is the password for the Allied player, line 3 is the Axis, it is encrypted but you can see how many letters are in it so that might help you remember.

I have a file called game passwords where I put my pbem passwords when I start a game as some of my opponents are slow to return files, something I don't have a problem with but at my age my short term memory is not what it used to be.
