Diplomacy plays a significant role in these items, as the UK and US held a number of meetings to discuss their strategies for different countries. The discussions include the signing of the 'London Agreement' on military co-operation. These reports cover British and US operations from Belgium to Crete; their main focus being on activities in France and Italy. Records from 1945 describe conditions in Italy at the end of the war.
