Sunday, June 7, 1942 www.onwar.com

Sevastopol under attack [photo at link]

On the Eastern Front... Sevastopol is again the object of heavy fighting because of its importance as the main Soviet naval port on the Black Sea. The Soviet Black Sea Fleet is supplying the besieged city. The Sevastopol garrison is comprised of 7 infantry divisions and 3 marine brigades. These forces are badly under strength. The Germans are attacking with 9 divisions, two of them manned by their Romanian allies.

In the Aleutian Islands... The Japanese take Attu Island.

In the Pacific... USS Yorktown, damaged during the Battle of Midway, is sunk by a Japanese submarine.
