What use did the Fleet Air Arm make of the few Brewster Buffalo Aircraft they received?

Were Fleet Air Arm Brewster Buffalo aircraft used in action in North Africa and Crete in 1941?

I have seen photos of them on location, but not seen any accounts of them in action against the Italians or Luftwaffe?
