After The Battle  |  Issue195
UNDERGROUND AIRCRAFT FACTORY AT KAHLA — In this final issue of After the Battle magazine we start with Patrick Brion telling us how in April 1944, as part of their programme to transfer their armaments production to underground facilities, the Germans began building a subterranean aircraft factory near the town of Kahla in Thuringia. THE ARREST OF ARTHUR SEYSS-INQUART — Karel Margry tells the story of the capture and arrest of Arthur Seyss-Inquart, one of the top men in the Nazi hierarchy. THE ‘SYMBOL’ CONFERENCE AT CASABLANCA — During the Second World War, more than 20 top-level conferences between the Allies were held in a variety of locations: from Washington to Moscow, Quebec to Cairo, and Teheran to Casablanca. Of all these meetings, probably the most significant was that held in the Moroccan capital Casablanca in January 1943, when US President Franklin D. Roosevelt and British Prime Minister Winston Churchill met with the Combined Chiefs-of-Staff for a ten-day conference. Code-named ‘Symbol’, it ended with a unified statement of intent that the Allies would accept nothing less than unconditional surrender from the Axis forces. As meticulous and precise as ever, Jean Paul Pallud, After the Battle’s longest standing contributor, recounts the conference in full detail. A WORD OF FAREWELL FROM YOUR EDITOR — Karel Margry shares some memories of his many years as Editor of After the Battle and says his goodbyes in this very last edition of the magazine to be published. Together with recently-retired Editor-in-Chief Winston Ramsey, he worked hard to forge ATB’s reputation, which is widely accepted as second to none. The company, now in the safe hands of Pen & Sword Books Ltd, will concentrate on publishing exciting new book titles under the guidance of Rob Green, who has been with After the Battle for well over three decades and is privileged to have worked alongside both Karel and Winston for all that time.
