Private memo, 20-DEC-1943

...the number of buzzbombs falling into London proper have more than tripled from last month. He told me that he was faced with no less than imminent and total evacuation of the city.

(Even if the buzzbombs stop falling, though, there are more and more reports of German piloted jet aircraft prowling the skies...)

We speculate the the Germans have advanced their control over these cowardly weapons of terror in two ways:

1. Guidance - it is known that a devilish system of gyroscopic devices were used to control the flight path of these monsters in the past. Thank God the system was not very accurate. All the Germans could do was point the monster in the direction of London and then cross their monkey-like toes.

Now, we fear, the Germans might possibly be enlisting the aid of logic engines - similar to the one Nikola Tesla demonstrated before Congress in '36. Such a device, given enough thinking power, could possibly control the engine as well as orientation of control surfaces. It has been demonstrated - and here I must refrain from divulging my source of information - that a capable logic engine can, indeed, control an in-flight vehicle. In fact, per my source, a logic engine can fly a vehicle much more efficiently than a human pilot - and with far greater precision to boot!

If it is true that the Hun are controlling buzzbombs (and probably other weapons as well!) in such a manner - then the fate of London looks grim.

2. Fuel - we have indirect evidence that the Germans have altered their fuel and/or fuel delivery systems. Probably both. They may now be using a propellant that is - for whatever reason - more readily available (or at least easily manufactured) and less dangerous to handle or deploy.

We know that the Germans have been relying on extremely toxic and volatile liquid fuels which react, when mixed, with much violence. The dangers of handling, transport, and deployment of these fuels is obvious. Knowing this, we can assume that the successful launch of a V-type rocket is a slow and tedious business. This fact, we think, is what has put a limit on the number of launches - per time frame - until just recently. The quantity of ballistic missiles now impacting London and elsewhere in the south of England indicate that the Nazis have solved their fueling boondoggle.

Reports filtering through Panama suggest that successful launches are now being carried out from the decks of U-boats...
