The last question whether Czech soldiers also participated in the fights around Tobruk, vird affirmed... (disturbation).... Now follows a report for the Czech Slovaks in the Protectorate. You are all constantly listening to the reports of the so-called tsehech, press office (Ctk) by the Prague Radio, first and foremost the news from the head quarters of the leader, which are not enough of victorious German advances on the eastern front and in the fight against Great Britain on the Atlantic.
