Germany - A Huge Strategic Blunder - 14 Jun to 15 Jun 1941
14 Jun 1941: The Finnish Army is making impressive advances into Soviet territory.
The 101. Sturm-Division has been deployed and I place it in training.The trained Panzer-Lehr-Division and 936. Infanterie-Division (mot.) are assigned to 1. Panzerarmee.
Ten Infanterie-Divisionen are assigned to 1. Reserve Armee....
....while the Fallschirm-Pz-Div. 'Hermann-Göring' and 935. Infanterie-Division (mot.) are assigned to 2. Panzerarmee.
The 27. Panzer-Division is assigned to 3. Panzerarmee....
...and the 26. Panzer-Division is assigned to 4. Panzerarmee.
I create Jagdgeschwader 5 at Brandenburg and order Pilot Exercises.
My Construction queue.
I reduce the Rubber being imported from the United Kingdom....
....and my Fuel Stocks are looking good.
I remind the Dutch again....
....and select Paramilitary Training in Slovakia.
I split the III. U-Boots Flottille into two halves....
....and create the V. U-Boots Flottille.
I take a break here. Even Hungary is stronger than France now and France only has 2 Fleets remaining.
15 Jun 1941: I convert the Infanterie-Divisionen in Armee Nord to Sturm-Divisionen.
Three Divisionen in Armee Süd require further training.
I assign the 218. and 221. Sturm-Divisionen to Armee Nordost.
Damn! I was so involved in Finland that I forgot to start justifying the war against the Soviet Union.
A bit later than planned but better late than never.
