Germans capture Yalta
Sunday, November 9, 1941 www.onwar.com
German soldiers on patrol near YaltaOn the Eastern Front... Tikhvin falls to German forces of Army Group North, further isolating Leningrad. In the Crimea in the south, Yalta falls to the German 11th Army.
I highly recommed James Reston's analysis of the way Washington is thinking about the dilemma of fighting a war without declaring war. ("The doctrine of 'limited war' still predominates") The focus is mostly on Germany, with Japan as an afterthought. This despite the low-percentage negotiations now going on with the Japanese.
Reston was still writing for the Times in the sixties, I'm pretty sure. I wonder if he covered the national debate on "limited war" during the Vietnam era.
