*The entire press today features extensive accounts of German submarine manoeuvres in the Baltic Sea, in which the entire submarine fleet – reported to number seventy-one craft – participated under the personal supervision of Admiral General Erich Raeder.

71? I thought it was closer to 50.

The authorities adduced for that argument and widely cited in the German press are, first, Captain B.H. Liddell Hart, described as “the greatest military critic of Germany,” and Alfred Duff Cooper, former First Lord of the Admiralty.

I know that name! B.H. Liddell Hart is the author of one of my reference books, History of the Second World War. I expect to be excerpting from it in the not-so-distant future.

Hey Homey...BH Hart is a good reference. Looks like he was a sharp critic right from his early days. And he was right on target with his critiques.
