Edited by Sir John Hammerton, this historic World War II weekly news publication provides a fascinating, raw contemporary window into early 1943 military operations through official battlefield photographs, maps, and detailed tactical reporting.
Key Features & Highlights Inside This Issue:
  • Front Cover: Features a striking photograph titled “On Guard in Tunisia: Bren Gunner looks out from a machine-gun nest”, capturing a British soldier watching for the enemy over the Tunisian landscape.
  • The Fall of Tripoli & The Eighth Army: Major coverage dedicated to General Montgomery’s historic entry into Tripoli, including a feature titled “Tripoli, Final Goal of the Eighth Army” alongside illustrations of the city and Allied supply operations.
  • Victory at Stalingrad: Important contemporary documentation of the final stages of the Battle of Stalingrad, tracking the massive Soviet encirclement of the German 6th Army under Von Paulus, complete with a detailed military operational map.
  • The War at Sea: A photographic feature layout documenting Allied naval strength, convoy protection, and profiles of decorated British naval servicemen.
  • Frontline Pictorials: Exceptional photo journalism tracking the realities of the North African and Russian winter campaigns, including images of specialized mountain troops (“Up in the Mountains of Tunisia”) and mechanised armor maneuvers.
  • Back Cover: Features a prominent portrait and article dedicated to Admiral of the Fleet Sir Andrew Cunningham, Commander-in-Chief of the Allied Naval Forces in the Mediterranean.
Condition Report:
  • This is a complete, original 1943 wartime magazine.
  • It shows expected signs of age-related wear, including natural paper toning (typical due to WWII wartime newsprint rationing), minor edge creasing, and light scuffing around the spine fold.
  • The interior pages remain clean, flat, completely readable, and securely attached to the original binding. Please review all provided photos closely to evaluate the exact cosmetic condition before purchase.
