Message to W. Churchill (Correspondence Vol. 1, No. 142)
I have received your two messages of April 6, as well as today's message on the important advance made by your troops in Tunisia. This is a notable success - congratulations. I hope that this time the Anglo-American troops will completely overcome and beat Rommel and the other Hitler bands in Tunisia. That would be of great value to our common struggle as a whole.
I welcome the stepped up bombing of Essen, Berlin, Kiel and other industrial centres of Germany. Every blow delivered by your Air Force to vital German centres evokes a most lively echo in the hearts of many millions throughout the length and breadth of our country.
April 7, 1943
