THE WAR ILLUSTRATED No.10 - SECOND BATTLE OF SHOBDON

12. GROUND ACTIVITY - WEST

Aerial Threat despatched, the Reds advance on Shobdon Airfield continues. Comrade Professor
Winters' troops execute a classic envelopment advance....
...as Commander Queeg's troops ready their defence. (One could say "circle the wagons"
but they didn't have enough wagons for that - just an RAF lorry and BUF Armoured Car)
But the most important development is across the road from the Airfield......
...where Comrade Gollumroo's flanking mounted infantry reach their objectives and swiftly garrison
the houses. Now they overlook the road leading from Shobdon Court to Shobdon Airfield....
Comrade Professor Winters is so excited that he changes his uniform.
(Ed Note - perhaps that should read : "...had to change his uniform"?)
