THIS DAY IN WW2 (10.12.1940)
In North Africa... Sidi Barrani falls to the British attack. There are 20,000 prisoners already in the offensive. The coast road to the west has been cut by 7th Armored Division at Buq Buq.
In Washington... Roosevelt announces an extension of the export-license system. Iron ore, pig iron and many important iron and steel manufactures are brought within the system. Like previous measures this is aimed at penalising Japan. The changes come into effect at the end of the year.
From Berlin... OKW issues a directive ordering the transfer of German Luftwaffe's 10th Fliegerkorps to south Italy and Sicily. Field Marshal Milch has been in Rome during the last few days to discuss the measures to help the Italian navy.
TODAY IN MY LIFE
Marketing and bookwriting plans went awry due to distractions, but these will be gone by Monday, so I'll try again then. In the meantime I might get a little done today and tomorrow. I have now registered in the new Government-sponsored self-regulatory complementary therapy body the CNHC (Complementary and Natural Healthcare Council). My membership number is 000479-L10
