Summer 1905: The English tabloid News-U-Need reports suspicious looking cadets and lieutenants in several pubs in Wales; they are said to hold their tongue much better than their beer; conversations that were overheard were said to have a strong accent; government sources allege this to common behavior amongst the Welsh, especially after a night in the pub.
Other news: Corriera del Serra reports from Piedmont with a special Roman edition: the Venetian Garde has regrouped and is determined to strike back at the Austrians; it was said that the attack by the Austrians had caused a new surge in nationalism (as did the news that the Italian soccer team made it to the next round in the European Championship).
Retreats:
France: F English Channel - Wales
Italy: A Venice - Rome
Turkey's Fleet at Smyrna is disbanded.
Deadline for Fall 1905 orders will be MONday (not Tuesday) June 23, 23.00 GMT.
Prelims are welcome at anytime.
