October 6th 1929
After almost a month of fighting, the Battle of Santa Barbara is still not over.
This is not much of a problem because our reconnaissance unit tells tales of retreating enemy columns. The battle is almost over.
November 14th 1929
We've had another advance in our military knowledge. MAN has improved the cannons of our static AA Batteries.
Although we haven't seen any enemy aircraft yet, it is good to know that they can be shout out of the air when we do.
December 1st 1929
I've managed to obtain another map of the American front's, I'm still trying to get some more detailed maps, but I guess this will have to do for the moment.
Based on this map I figure the leadership is trying to pin a lot of forces in Mexican California between our lines, the ocean and Revolutionary Mexico. I hope we will be able to keep that potential pocket close, since it will allow the destruction of a lot of Entente forces. Once enough troops have been detached to keep the pocket closed, the remainder can advance to the east, hopefully we can advance eastward at a quick pace, it might allow us to trap a lot of U.S. Troops in Mexico.
That's not the only important news of today. As expected the Battle of Santa Barbara didn't last long after I last talked about it. Santa Barbara is now secured and today we have started to attack the enemy positions in San Bernardino.
The enemy is heavily entrenched, but I'm certain we will drive them out of their positions.
December 22nd 1929
After three weeks of fighting the American in San Bernardino are almost broken.
Unfortunately for us our scout's report they have reinforcements about a week away.
Perhaps they can use the newly developed Tactical Bombers to attack the enemy columns?

Happy New Year Max! I hope you've received the card I sent you. It's a card of Fortress Alcatraz in San Francisco. I've visited it when I was on leave. Imagine it was used as a military prison until we took it from the Americans.
As I've said before I was trying to get some more detailed maps of our frontlines. I've finally been able to get some since the staff at HQ has a new aid. He supplies me with the occasional maps after I told him why I needed them.
I'll start with showing a map of the South-Western sector, where I'm stationed.
As you can see, we're relentlessly attacking San Bernardino from all possible directions. Currently I've been redeployed to Fresno and the rearguard of the units assaulting San Bernardino.
Here's a map of the central frontlines:
This map shows our troops advancing into Colorado, so we've passed the Rocky Mountains and are now moving into the Great Plains, something that will help our mobility by far.
Not much movement can be reported on this sector, it's quite static and awaiting the redeployment of troops to strengthen their lines and get in position for the next attack.
I'll move on to the next sector, the Northwestern one:
Not much to report on this sector as well, there have been small skirmishes to try to get the Americans out of our parts of Canada, but not enough troops are being committed to force a breakthrough.
So let's take a look at the Canadian Sector:
As you can see there is a small gap in the Canadian lines. As I've heard they are trying to create and close the Californian pocket as soon as possible. It will shorten the front and frees up troops that we then can send to Canada to breach open another front for the Americans.
Although I've now shown you all of the American Front, the surprise isn't over yet.
After years of no contact at all I've finally received word from your Uncle Tom!
It seems that he has been transferred to the Siberian Front, where he is freezing and has nothing to do than stare at the multitude of nationalities that are assembled in that small part of Asia.
That leaves only the Afrika to be talked about.
I've found some outdated maps from captured American documents and newspapers.
Here you can see the Western sector. It shows that we've crossed halfway trough the Congo. It also shows almost no enemy troop estimates, so it's a case of walking in, pacifying the area and move on. You can clearly see our troops marching against Portuguese Leopoldville.
The Eastern sector, the Uganda and Kenya area's are secured and no enemy troops have been reported
That leaves the most populous area of Africa in terms of Soldiers, central Afrika, mostly in what the natives call Zambia.
There is heavy fighting in that area, but here resistance is also getting less. The troops of the United Kingdom are weary, and supplies are harder to come by for them.
I'll show you what I'm talking about:
This concludes all current fronts of the War. Of course there is the minor uprising from the unruly populace in the occupied territories, but they are quickly put back in their place.
I'll leave it at that for today.
January 22nd 1930
Remember I told you that our troops were marching towards Portuguese Leopoldville?
It was the de facto capital of Portugal and our troops were able to capture the Portuguese government. The signed the document that turned over their lands and armed forces to us.
