Over Germany... The final RAF 1,000 plane raid bombs Bremen. The training squadrons used to raise the number of planes to 1,000 must return to regular training.

In North Africa... Despite superior numbers of tanks and several fresh formations the British cannot halt the German advance into Egypt near Mersa Matruh.
