Soviets defeat attack on Sevastopol
Thursday, November 13, 1941 www.onwar.com
On the Eastern Front... German and Romanian troops make an unsuccessful attempt to seize Sevastopol.
In Washington... Congress passes changes to the Neutrality Laws. US merchant ships may now be armed and enter war zones. The changes pass with a slim margin.
In the Mediterranean... Force K, returning to Gibraltar from Malta is attacked by two German U-boats, U-81 and U-205. The British carrier Ark Royal is hit and badly damaged.
"No doubt that will be the dominant story on Dec. 8."
