Lots of interesting stuff today:

1: Sorry Red Army but your newfangled anti-tank rifles are worthless.

2: Note to British commanders in Libya. Rommel's movement is no retreat. IT'S A TRAP!

3: Nice article about Rommel running into supply problems

4: Creepy little article about Jews being expelled from Slovakia sent to "concentration centers" in Ukraine. The term "concentration centers" to a reader would invoke more the camps the British sent Boer civilians to during the Boer War than of course the "Polish death camps" Obama referred to.
