Saturday, March 28, 1942 www.onwar.com

Damage from the raid at St NazaireIn Occupied France... British commandos stage a raid at St. Nazaire. The dock gates of the port are damaged, however the raid suffers great losses. The damage done however, will prevent German battleship Tirpitz from docking in western France.

Does anyone know when the first NY Times story about Japanese from the West Coast being sent to camps appear?

I just read the captions on the photos on pgs 10 & 11 for the first time. I see that the primary weapon is the same in both - a 75mm gun. And you could say it is a mobile artillery piece in both cases. The main difference is the source of mobility. One is a major polluter while the other has just a small carbon footprint. My guess is that after they submitted a Enviromental Impact Report on the M-1 they were forced by the EPA to scale back. The result of the redesign is what we see on page 11.
