ST. NAZAIRE LOCKS BOMBED
At least three probable direct hits were scored on the Eastern Entrance Lock (arrow) at ST. NAZAIRE during the first wave of the U.S.B.C. daylight attack on 28.6.43. The second wave of attacking aircraft approaching the Port nearly 20 minutes later, dropped more bombs around the Bassin de St. Nazaire and at least one direct hit was registered on the caissons of the adjacent lock under construction.
Inset: (A) The Eastern Entrance Lock. (B and B1) Concrete shelters of similar construction to the bomb proof U-Boat shelters, are being erected over the ends of the lock, presumably to protect the lock gates.

SALVAGE WORK ON FRENCH FLEET.
At least four contretorpilleurs, three destroyers, the net and minelayer GLADIATEUR, three escort vessels, two torpedo boats, two submarines, two armed trawlers and two submarine chasers of the French Fleet have been raised in TOULON. Three contretorpilleurs and a destroyer have been transferred to Spezia.
Two La Galissonniere Class cruisers (No. 6 on mosaic), which had settled in the dry dock off Missiessy Basin, have been raised, removed to dry dock and now berthed (Inset A, No. 3).
The Suffren Class cruiser DUPLEIX (No. 7 on mosaic and Inset B, No. 1), on fire for at least a month, has been stripped of her superstructure.
The superstructure of the ex-battleship PROVENCE (Inset A, No. 2) is being dismantled.
Dismantling work has progressed on the battle cruiser STRASBOURG (Insets C and D, No. 1), which had settled.
The ex-battleship CONDORCET has been moved from near the entrance to the Old Basin (No. 8 on the mosaic) to Port Lagoubran (Inset C, No. 5).
The aircraft tender COMMANDANTE TESTE, which was listing to port and had settled by her stern (No. 9 on mosaic and Inset A, No. 1) has been raised, visited dry dock and returned to her former berth.
Most of the superstructure of the Suffren Class cruiser COLBERT, which had been burning for nearly a month and had settled by her stern, has been dismantled (Insets C and D, No. 2). The FOCH, of the same class, was submerged on an even keel (No. 10 on mosaic), was raised, visited dry dock and is now at Port Lagoubran (Inset C, No. 6). The cruiser ALGERIE, on fire for nearly a month, has had most of her superstructure dismantled (Insets C and D, No. 3).
The cruiser MARSEILLAISE, which was on fire for over a month and had a heavy list to port, is now probably being dismantled (Insets C and D No. 4).
The battle cruiser DUNKERQUE, which was lying damaged in dry dock, rose by her stern when the dock was flooded. Dismantling work has taken place on her superstructure (Inset A, No. 4).

BEAUFIGHTER ATTACK ON CONVOY
An attack on a Southbound convoy off Den Helder was made by Beaufighters on 24.5.43. Torpedoes and bombs were used during the attack. The convoy, consisting of M/Vs from 1,500 tons to 4,000 tons and including the 5,180 ton "Stadt Emden", was escorted by "M" Class Minesweepers and armed trawlers. Several of the M/V's were flying balloons.

A large proportion of the reinforced fighter strength of the G.A.F. consists of Fw 190s. The radial-engined designs of the Fw 190 (the first successful fighter produced by Focke-Wulf) is a departure from the usual German practice of using in-line engines for single seat fighters. [/boxed]

AIRFIELD CAMOUFLAGE IN DENMARK
[photograph]
In October, 1941, the landing field and three runways at AALBORG/WEST (RØDSLET), the most important bomber base in Denmark, were effectively camouflaged with dummy cultivation patches and roads (A). Painted lines on the runways represent drainage (B) which is seen on the centre of the field. Two of the dummy roads have been outlined by painted tree shadows (C). When the landing ground was later extended the open aircraft shelters (D) were removed (see next page).

[photograph]
AALBORG/WEST (RØDSLET). The runways which have been extended (arrows) are now more conspicuous, the camouflage having faded. A painted pond (E) has "streams" leading away and one of these joins a genuine stream (F) leading to the sea. A similar painted stream is seen on another runway (G). The shelters are covered with dark-toned netting which is draped out at the sides and a light flak battery has appeared on the coast (H).

[boxed] KERLIN BASTARD AIRFIELD [/boxed]
[photograph]
The site for KERLIN BASTARD Airfield was cleared in July 1940. Actual construction, which was commenced in April, 1941, has proceeded steadily. Its strategic situation and proximity to the submarine base at Lorient make it ideal for aircraft engaged in anti-shipping activity.
Above: The site as it appeared in July, 1940.
[photograph]
Right: June, 1941. An area of 2,750 yds. by 2,400 yds. is enclosed by a long perimeter track and, judging by the amount of levelling work which has been carried out recently this will eventually form the landing ground.
46
[page break]
[photograph]
KERLIN BASTARD. The Airfield has a formidable layout. The runways, with prepared strips, are approximately 2,200 yds. and 2,300 yds. long. The runways are approximately 90 yds. wide and the prepared strips on each side are approximately 120 yds. in width. Parts of the runways have been roughly painted with dummy roads but no attempt has been made to hide the marks of constructional activity.

EVIDENCE IN CAMERA
This weekly document will consist of a collection of illustrations varying in number in each issue according to the quantity of material of sufficient interest and suitable for reproduction that is received.
2. Requests for material to be included in this document should be submitted to Command Headquarters, who, after consideration, will submit them to Air Ministry, A.D.I.(Ph.). Any useful suggestions as regards contents will receive full consideration and will be welcomed.
3. Distribution is carried out by the Air Ministry (A.I. I) and any requests for fewer or additional copies must be made through Group Headquarters who will ensure the maximum possible economy.
4. Under no circumstances must any of the illustrations be reproduced by Units in the British Isles. Further copies can be printed from the existing blocks and independent photographic reproduction would be a waste of material and labour to the detriment of the National War Effort.
5. The distribution of photographs to the general public is carried out through the Press who are supplied with photographs which have been specially selected for their general interest and have been published after careful consideration by the Security Branch and by the Ministry of Information; it is therefore unnecessary as well as undesirable to communicate any of the contents of this document, either directly or by discussion in public places, to persons not enjoying the privilege of serving in H.M. Forces.
6. The document has not been officially graded as Secret or Confidential in order that the widest distribution may be given, but Commanding Officers should use their discretion to ensure that the appropriate information is available only to those whose work will benefit.
7. The necessity for security cannot be over emphasised, for although this document is not marked Secret some of its contents may occasionally be of value to the enemy. Every care must be taken to prevent such information being disclosed.
