Britain Strikes Another Blow at Axis Shipping in East Recently the British Fleet Air Arm has been very active in attack- ing Axis shipping in the Mediterran- ean. British Swordship torpedo-j carrying aircraft are shown attach- ing a large Axis convoy. Three of the convoy received direct hits and a vessel of 6,000 tons sank after two hours. A tanker was left blazing and a merchantman, which beached after being struck by a torpedo, was later set on fire by a heay bomb from a British Blenheim bomber. Recent weeks have proved disastrous for Axis shipping, both in Eastern and Western waters, and all services of the Allied Forces are united in their determination to strike harder blows for freedom, until the Nazi regime is driven from Europe.
