Scope and content
Contains 18 items. The correspondence is for the most part between AEAF and 21 Army Group and deals chiefly with the distribution of the report. SZ was concerned that 21 Army Group appeared to have pre-empted joint publication by sending a draft to the JTWC without consulting AEAF. The circumstances of its despatch to JTWC are explained and assurances given that the correct procedures were being observed, including the issue of formal approval of the document by SHAEF. The sub-file includes correspondence relating to a paper received by the Air Ministry for comment and to RAF Bomber Command’s analyses of close support operations.
