It Balkans actually takes place, asnow seems close to inevitable, the war will really enter of the its decisive phase. This battle represents immense dangers to both sidea and both for some time have been hesitant to run the risk. Now it looks as if the strategists may have decided that the possible gains are so great that it is worth the gigantic gamble. As Time puts it, "For Germany, a setback in the Balkans would be more than Germany's first outright military defeat in World War II. It would be the turning point of the war. "For Britain, a decisive defeat at Salonika (or anywhere else in the Balkans) would be more than another Narvik or another Dunkirk. It would mean the destruction of Britain's only existing victorious army; the closing of Europe's back door; the focussing of the entire war upon the British Isles where, in the last analysis, World War II must be decided." lot V, Dried able to stroll in the warm air and half the fun of strolling lies in being smartly dressed!
