The most humiliating defeat in British history according to Winston Churchill- 80,000 men lost as prisoners of war! Humiliated by an enemy far less numerous than themselves! There are many ways to describe the fall of Singapore; these are but two of them.

Meanwhile in the Soviet Union, thousands of Red Army paratroops are dropping behind German lines.
