Royal Navy Rules Arctic Battle Dominates North
London May 30 The Royal Navy has gained clear mastery of the Arctic Ocean as Allied forces sweep toward Norway. After four months with the fleet I report the Allies won the Arctic battle as decisively as in the Atlantic. U boat assaults on Allied shipping there have fallen off and German plane attacks have temporarily ceased. The German surface fleet is a weakened threat, while U boats sunk exceed those lost. Carrier and RAF strikes against Norwegian bases and supply lines have intensified in 60 days.
