Hi guys,
I hope I haven't overly taxed your patience by not getting round to doing the adjucation last night after all.
Anyway, poor ole Stresemann might have spilled his tea all over given all the bad news inundating the Wilhelmstraße. The Reichswehr reports that Germany's forward defence line in the Alps has been overrun. By comparison, the Reichsmarine's news that the loss of Hamburg was offset by taking Denmark might almost sound like good news. Presumably he now wants to trade in his Nobel Peace Prize medal for some new arms to defend the Fatherland.
So, now there are three German retreats pending. I'll adjucate once I've received them from Matt - unless he wishes me to wait until the Saturday deadline.
Liebe Grüsse,
Charles
