I got in a rush this morning trying to do the turn quickly before going to work.  If you don’t mind, when you do your Russian turn, please edit the two german units and the Italian transport in the Red Sea next to Egypt.  The German units were supposed to hop off and land in Egypt leaving the Italian transport empty.

Thanks,
