That little piece at the end of page 14 about a 1934 Soviet-Nazi deal was most intriguing.

Good to see the TIMES was as concerned with accuracy then as now. That’s not a picture of a tank [see the tires?]. It’s an armored car.

And they do allude to the fact that Guderian is in the process of slipping his leash and busting it for Brest-Litovsk.
