Axis Fears Yugoslav Supply Lines Through Submarine Contacts
Jugoslav headquarters cite an Axis paper report that British submarines tried to contact Yugoslav patriots in the Adriatic, implying German and Italian doubt about how Draja Mihailović’s forces are supplied. Wiener Tagblatt says contacts were blocked, while observers doubt the claim. The piece notes fierce fighting, 2,000 killed along the Sava and Danube, and German intervention to stabilize harvesting districts.

Anxiety Over Missing Native Army On Aleutian Attu
Don Pickard and Ginger Pickard recall C Foster Jones and his 47 native men who formed an improvised army on Attu when Japan invaded the Aleutian outpost. Jones, island caretaker and radio operator, reportedly drilled the natives and warned of fighting if the invaders landed, even threatening to destroy aviation fuel stores. After broadcasting four daily aerological reports, Jones vanished and is presumed dead or captured.
