MIDDLE EAST FORCES
REORGANISATION PLAN TWO BRITISH COMMANDS (10 a.m.) LONDON, April 21. Britain's Middle East land forces ara to be reorganised, according to the Daily Telegraph’s military correspondent. The reorganisation, he says, will take place gradually, but it will ultimately mean that the command is divided into two sub-commands, namely, the Eastern Mediterranean Command, probably controlling all the land forces from Malta, Greece and Cyprus to the Sudan and the East African Command, probably controlling all the land forces from Somaliland and Uganda to the Zambesi.
