In Libya, the Brita are at it again: “The concentration of our troops is proceeding smoothly”.

Considering the Germans and Italians have captured Derna, the DAK has captured the command staff of the British 2d Armored, and driven the rest east, and is about to take the troops encircled at Mechili, that statement is probably true, since the British have increasingly less troops to gather in an increasingly smaller area.
