Note the report at top left: "U.S. in Danger of Air Invasion If Britain's Fleet Is Destroyed, Stimson Warns House Group" |
(Secretary of War Henry Stimson, tells Congress that if the British navy is lost or surrenders, the German air force will have a clear path to mounting an invasion of the United States. Due to the limitations of aircraft endurance, the Atlantic Ocean was a much more formidable obstacle than the Royal Navy to any invasion by air of the United States. This was just another absurd statement made by an American politician.) |
