GERMAN ANXIETY
BRITISH PATROL MOVES LANDING IN FRANCE (British Official Wireless.) Reed. 10.30 a.m. RUGBY, Nov. 25. The Ministry of Information states that the enemy is betraying anxiety about British intentions in regard to the coast of occupied territory, and hopes, by making exaggerated claims, to elicit information .which will be withheld from him. It is learned in London that to-day’s German communique—which said that during Sunday night the British made an attempt to land on the French Channel coast with several boats, but were successfully repulsed by German coastal defences —probably refers to a small British patrol which landed on Sunday night on the coast of Normandy. This patrol returned complete, the only casualty sustained being one man struck in the arm by a machine-gun bullet.
