British 8th Army Crushed in the desert by Rommel
Left with no choice but to follow up on the ill fated Italian attack on Tobruk, General Rommel tries to salvage what he can of the situation by taking the offensive.
After the news of the British destruction of the Kriegsmarine's Nordsee Flotilla off the coast of Copenhagen, Hitler goes off on another of his famous rampages. After a long confrontation with Hitler the OKM of the Kriegsmarine Erich Raeder resigns his post in disgrace.
On the Eastern Front little action is taken this month and Hitler demands more from his officers, six more generals along with over a 100 officers are removed and sent packing back to the officers pool. Adolf Hitler demands results and results now!
The OKW and OKH are starting to think there is no chance for Victory as long as this "Little Corporal" keeps making military decisions.
In unrelated news the Fuhrer's personal doctor who gives him his daily doses of drug cocktails suddenly dies, and a new doctor from the Wehrmacht is hand picked by the OKW for Hitler.
