On the Eastern Front… German General Guderian's Panzer Group 2 is moved north to form the right wing of the planned German attack on Moscow. They begin with an advance toward Orel and Bryansk. In the south, Kleist's Panzer Group 1 attack from Dnepropetrocvsk. Soviet resistance is minimal.

In Moscow… An Allied planning conference continues. Harriman attends from the US, Beaverbrook, from Britain and Molotov heads the Soviet delegation.
