Bomber Strategy Shifts to Balkans Oil and Rail Targets
The article argues the Red Army should focus on trapping the German Sixth Army around Odessa rather than rushing to Ploesti. Allied air power could cripple Axis Balkan supply lines by striking Pest Bucharest and Danube routes, potentially cutting Romanian oil flows before Russians reach Ploesti. It notes Germany could endure six months of disruption, then face critical shortages.
