Crown Prince’s warning and Nazi invasion timing recounted
Louis P. Lochner recalls pivotal wartime moments from Berlin. He describes the August 1939 communication cut that interrupted reports before Poland’s entry, a break in ties with Paris, and how Havas enabled Paris to relay briefs to New York. He notes the May 9 1940 christening drama and cautious German public, then details June 22 1941 Soviet invasion signs and Russian diplomacy.
