American transport flying “Over the Hump” [photo at link]

From India... The first supplies flown into China “Over the Hump” are sent to Chiang Kai-shek’s forces. The loss of the Burma Road to the Japanese prevents supplying the troops by land.

In North Africa... Fighting continues around the Ruwesiat Ridge, with the German forces regaining some ground. Losses to British artillery fire are high.
