The 32nd Army Tank Brigade was an armoured formation of the British Army during World War II. It was formed in Egypt in September 1941. The brigade HQ was sent to Tobruk to take command of all Royal Armoured Corps units stationed there. In June 1942, a composite brigade was formed in Tobruk with surviving elements of the 1st Army Tank Brigade, which surrendered on 22 June after the fall of Tobruk.[1]
