#OnThisDay in 1942, the Allies began Operation Streamline Jane, to capture the rest of #Madagascar. Streamline Jane consisted of three linked operations, codenamed Stream, Line, and Jane.
The initial landings for all three operations were very successful. But Vichy resistance was stubborn, and it was November before the island was completely under Allied control.

Our summer camp is coming to an end! For ten days we have been exploring the history of Nazi #forcedlabor with a special focus on #gender aspects. Among other things we learned about the persecution of #queer people during the #SecondWorldWar, and then we became interested in getting more information. So we went to the #SchwulesMuseum for a fascinating tour about queer movements in Germany since the Stonewall.

Soap intended for nylon/silk stockings from Strumpimporten in Malmö, Sweden.
Nylon stockings began to be manufactured in about 1939 and were highly sought after mainly among Western women during the Second World War when goods of various kinds became increasingly scarce and many traded with coupon booklets distributed by Swedish authorities.
Later, nylon and silk stockings began to be manufactured by Malmö Strumpfabrik in the mid-40s up until the 60s.
