战役中最著名的照片：海外军团第13半旅所属单位发起反冲击，白色高筒帽是其荣誉象征。
根据新闻工作者鲁茨·科赫（Lutz Koch）在《隆美尔》中所提到的，希特勒在论及比尔哈基姆之战时说：“You hear, Gentlemen? It is a new evidence that I have always been right! The French are, after us, the best soldiers! Even with its current birthrate, France will always be able to mobilize a hundred divisions! After this war, we will have to find allies able to contain a country which is able of military exploits that astonish the world like they are doing right now in Bir-Hakeim!”
先生们，你们听过了吗？新的证据表明我总是对的！法国人是仅次于我们的最优秀军人！就按目前的出生率，法国也完全能够动员上百个师！这场战争结束后，我们的盟友中必须要有具备如此惊世战绩的国家，就像现在他们在比尔哈基姆干的一样！”
