[B][I]July 11, 1940[/I][/B] [I]After Dunkirk we've had less than a month to build up the battered and dwindled squadrons that fought in France. Under the guidance of Squadron Leader Kyte we've made several flights getting acquainted with the Spitfires. But it wasn't enough. The pilots that became Green Section arrived three days ago. And now the Germans were again on the move. Sinking ships and probing our defenses. And once again, we weren't ready. But this time, we had at least ...
[B]Amidst another week with plenty going on Glory-wise [/B]I'm pleased to report how due to a stroke of luck I now have a [B]Supermarine Spitfire Mk II[/B] on the way.

Opposition TBA still at this moment in time as in terms of real historical ...

I arrived there to discover that the pair of [B]Yakovlev Yak-1s [/B]which I ordered through them recently had come in earlier than I was expecting to see them this week. Up until this point a plan involving more [I]heavy bomber activity [/I]was on the cards as I was also facing up to three hours Solitaire airtime. But as things ...
[B]Though there has been no actual WGS activity [/B]going on in this direction since last Wednesday (See [B]Glory Blog: Entry number 22[/B]) there has been plenty of ancilliary activity going on in support of the game. This has mostly to do with my decision to build up a [I]sub-fleet of around five to ten [/I]:minis: [I]alongside the regular collection [/I]which is used by the Wife and Myself.
