on Tinian Island have pushed inland nearly
a mile. RAF bombers from Britain last
night attacked Stuttgart in great strength.
Our Mosquitoes were over Berlin and more
attacks were made on the flying bomb launching
sites in Northern France. Flying bombs again
came over Southern England including the
London area during the night.

Some progress has already been reported in our new attack
south of Caen. The enemy is however putting up stiff
defense. Russian troops are 60 miles from Warsaw
where a place has been captured. 16 German Generals
captured by the Russians have called on the German
army to break with Hitler and end the war.
In Italy our troops are within 10 miles of Florence
and in their latest landings on Guam and Tinian
the Americans are pushing ahead.
At 3.30 this morning we resumed our attack south
of Caen. Our correspondent Howard Marshall
reporting two hours ago said that the first phase of
the battle is ending. German troop concentrations
in a wood southeast of Caen were attacked early this
morning. The attacks on oil supplies viz by again
attacking the storage tanks near St. Nazaire were
also kept up. Outside Stuttgart, Frankfort and
Aachen were also attacked last night.
