No new thread again today because I only have two headlines. There is nothing to post under them because of my scanner Learning Experience. The good news is that whatever I was doing wrong I stopped doing it at this point. 9/23/38 and after are OK. Most of what I had for today was about the Long Island Express hurricane. There will be more on that topic tomorrow and Sunday, 9/25. Or Thursday as we call it now.

Just an aside, but this is a present topographical map of Germany.

The reason I post this is you can see the topography of the Sudetenland on this map. As you can see it was a very mountainous frontier and additionally the Czechs had many border fortifications in these areas that bordered Germany. Not to mention all the coal, and other resources in the area.

The Czech's could have put up stiff resistence on this frontier but it was clear to them that they couldn't do it on their own. The loss of the Sudetenland took the teeth out of any future defence of Czechoslovakia.
