What the Red Army had won, but had yet to exploit, were positions and advantages which may eventually doom the Wehrmacht.

These preparations may enable the Russians to take advantage of any further margin which the Mediterranean front may create...
...increasing indications that this terrific strain on U.S. reserves- so severe that at the current rate the Mesabi may be gutted in twelve years-will be eased. For at Steep Rock Lake, 100 miles to the north, Canadians, with the help of U.S. capital and engineering, are preparing to exploit a little Mesabi of their own, rich in high-grade...
