    Il giorno e la storia Con il Patrocinio di Sezione di Legnano Mauro Venegoni MOVM LIBRO cartaceo ISBN 978-1-291-61437-4 Marchio editoriale: Lulu.com Copyright © 2021 - LegnanoNews - Proprietà di Professional Network s.r.l. - P.Iva 03068650120 Tutti i contenuti originali sono di proprietà di LegnanoNews, ne è consentito l’utilizzo citando il sito come fonte. Dei contenuti non originali viene citata la fonte. Prefazione Quando la dr.ssa Renata Pasquetto ha proposto la rubrica “Il giorno e la storia”, il progetto è subito apparso interessante e meritevole di attenzione. Per un anno, partendo dall’anniversario dell’entrata in guerra dell’Italia nel secondo conflitto mondiale, avremmo pubblicato storie collegate sia ad episodi noti delle vicende belliche legnanesi, sia a personaggi locali e momenti meno conosciuti. Proprio questo secondo aspetto è stato la chiave del successo dell’idea, materializzata grazie all’impegno di ricerca della dr.ssa Pasquetto, alla collaborazione della sezione ANPI di Legnano, alla disponibilità di diversi legnanesi nell’aprire i loro archivi privati. Tra quest’ultimi, d’obbligo citare Alberto Centinaio. Il nostro ex sindaco è stato una vera e propria fonte per raccontare storie e personaggi rimasti nell’ombra per tanti anni. Possiamo senz’altro definire fondamentale il suo contributo per la riuscita del progetto. Nei ringraziamenti, doverosi quelli per la dr.ssa Renata Pasquetto. Il suo entusiasmo ci ha contagiati ogni volta in cui pubblicavamo testi inediti e carichi di novità. Una ricercatrice, l’amica Renata, che permette oggi all’ANPI Legnano di vantare un ruolo prioritario nella ricostruzione della nostra storia in un periodo tanto carico di sofferenze, ma anche di esempi di umanità e di amor patrio.

    1 Il disastro del 9 novembre 1941 La 3a Divisione Navale e la fine del Convoglio «Duisburg» . di Francesco Mattesini 2 IL DISASTRO DEL CONVOGLIO «DUISBURG» 9 NOVEMBRE 1941 di Francesco Mattesini 1 4.000 ton. di gasolio, di difficilissimo reintegro, in caso di perdita, il cui rifornimento in A.S. è, in questo momento, urgentissimo per esaurimento quasi totale delle scorte Il rafforzamento dell’Isola di Malta tra il Giugno e l’Ottobre 1941 Dal giugno 1941 la maggiore preoccupazione per i Comandi italiani e tedeschi fu rappresentata, a livello strategico - operativo, dal rafforzamento delle basi britanniche a Malta deciso da Churchill con direttiva del 14 aprile per interrompere i rifornimenti dell’Asse in Libia, e intensificato dopo il ritiro dalla Sicilia del X Fliegerkorps tedesco, verificatosi nell’ultima decade di maggio. 2 Inviato in Italia in gennaio per riprendere il controllo del Mediterraneo centrale perduto dagli ita- liani, dopo la conquista della Grecia e di Creta il X FK era stato rischierato in Grecia, per operare nel Mediterraneo Orientale e in particolare, per battere la base della Mediterranean Fleet ad Ales- sandria, per insidiare con mine magnetiche il Canale di Suez e per colpire i principali obiettivi ne- mici in Egitto e Medio Oriente. 3 Il ritiro del X FK dalla Sicilia e il progressivo rafforzamento di Malta portarono ad un notevole incremento dell’attività bellica britannica contro i convogli dell’Asse diretti in Libia, che si con- cretò con attacchi di aerei e di sommergibili di base sull’isola, senza che da parte italiana, per la debolezza qualitativa dell’Aeronautica della Sicilia e per la insufficiente capacità antisommergi- bile delle scorte navali italiane, fosse stato possibile reagire adeguatamente.
