Elliot Sees All Of Great Fleets Moving To Their War Stations
Eliot argues four major naval moves signal rising tensions. The British Mediterranean Fleet concentrates in the eastern Mediterranean to block Italy and protect Egypt and Turkey. France shifts the Toulon fleet to seal off Italy from its Spanish base and guard North Africa. Germany moves part of its fleet to the Atlantic, projecting a threat to British trade routes. The U S Navy returns to the Pacific, seen as a counter to Japan and a deterrent to actions in the Philippines and Indochina.
