Sollum, Egyptian - Libyan Border: June 16th, 1941. (Scenario Size: Battalion. Head to Head or Human vs Italian AI. This scenario uses variable objective victory points) The 2nd Scots Guards were finally in action during the night of 15th/16th June. The assault and capture of Musaid was the result of the skill of the Guards and laxity of the Italian defenders. As the sun rose on the 16th, the Scottish troops moved off to clear Sollum and the barracks above the escarpment and then move down to clear the seaside settlement. If successful, it would stop the Germans supplying the besieged forces at Halfaya Pass and open up an opportunity to attack that position from the rear.
