World War Two
Published 18 Sep 2021It’s a big week, but by now they all are. The fighting in Stalingrad is intense, the fighting on Guadalcanal is intense, and the US loses a carrier in the Pacific. And the German quest for oil in the Caucasus … how’s that going again?

World War Two
2 hours ago (edited)
A couple of big sinkings this week in addition to the general battles — a US carrier is torpedoed by a submarine, as is the British liner-turned-troopship Laconia, which is also carrying 1,500 Axis POWs. That leads to Dönitz’s “Laconia Order” and no further rescue attempts will be made by U-Boat crews, period. Such is modern war.
