Plowman, JeffreyGERMAN BREAKTHROUGH IN GREECE: The 1941 Battle of Pineios Gorge -- Then and Now Chronicles the 1941 Greek campaign, detailing how ANZAC forces, despite strategic delays and German blunders, managed a narrow escape from impending defeat. Winston Churchill sought to use Australian and New Zealand troops in his Greek venture. While the New Zealand government was adamant that their forces should have the support of an armored brigade, the Australian government was more concerned that it would end in an evacuation; a fear also evident among the British planners, a view they were reluctant to share Details how the entire Anzac Corps escaped the German trap, albeit by the skin of their teeth, and the British avoided the wider political ramifications of what could have happened had they lost what was, in New Zealand's case, their sole contribution to British land forces in the Middle East.
