The Battle of Ghazala was of operational significance for the entire operation of the 8th British Army as part of Operation Crusader. The Polish High Command assessed the commander of the 13th Corps of General Godwin-Austen.
In his letter to General Kopaski he wrote:
Your troops were right to expect loosening and rest before further fighting, but this was impossible because of the gravity of the situation and the need to press the enemy quickly. Despite this, the Brigade quickly entered the action against the enemy, fighting with skill, energy and great courage. "
