This week, we will see the German advances of Operation Barbarossa continue, although with a consequential shift of direction. In the far East, we will see how Japan starts to look beyond its current theatre to solve its continuing production shortages.

I'm sorry about the Thumbnail Placeholder. Spartacus still makes these amidst all the other duties that are on his plate. He is currently shooting the seven Suez Crisis episodes together with Indy and Astrid. BUT,  thanks to the TimeGhost Army, we have managed to hire a graphic designer to aid us with the production of thumbnails, and with the (re)design of banners and animations for the videos. Another quality boost is on the way!

Cheers,
Joram

Japan Gets hungry - WW2 - 101 - August 1, 1941

Japan needs resources for its seemingly endless war in China, but where to look for them? And who might have a problem with it? Meanwhile in the Soviet Union, Hitler's forces have been diverted from the Moscow Road, and are on the move in the north and the south.

When did y’all add the Lancaster in the background.

Does cast quite a dramatic shadow. A foretelling perhaps.

yes, I think a lot of people will notice the nice shadow. Foreshadowing of bombing campaigns soon to come?

I've read/heard that the Red Army staff was quite blind in the early stage of the war, not knowing where the concentration of enemy forces were and, to an extent, where it's own units were. In particular I've hear the story of Pavlov (R.I.P. this week) realizing his sector dire situation when he was shown a German map captured by accident. Could you comment on that? Maybe even draw some representation of this "fog of war"? For example: what the strategic map looks like from the German point of view at a given date, and what it looks like from the Soviet point of view at the same date, it might be difficult to represent fuzzy data like that, but could be really interesting in my opinion.

They added it a couple of months ago. Indy comments on why they added it.

considering where the shadow falls, a B-29 model might be more appropriate in a few years

Not a bad idea - now and again try show something to illustrate how each side might have assessed its position and the other sides. Of course, in many cases neither would be correct!

Is the model on the top shelf a YT-1300 and if so what does it have to do with the Second World War?
