Herr General: After passing to the defense in the North our troops have been hard pressed by the Southwestern Front on the Don River. They are trying to recover the area between the Don and Donest Rivers before winter sets up. The area is mostly defended by our allies, Italians and Romanians. We have to halt the Soviet offensive and restore the front. If we can achieve this we can expect be optimistic about our future posibilities. We rely on you Herr General!
