Hallo zusammen,
the Italian Regia Marina squadron sought safe harbour in the Dodecanese Islands, which have been part of Italy's colonial empire these past 30-odd years (hence the green tinge to them, if you look closely).
The Fall 1940 Moves are due NLT 6PM CET on Monday, 21 June. So please send my your prelims no later than Saturday.
Liebe GrĂ¼sse,
Charles
