[Neil] Ritchie, stating that, on the figures given, he does not consider that the 8th Army can resume the offensive on a large scale until 1 May at the earliest, recognizing at the same time that the real danger lies in the possibility that the enemy may be able to stage an attack with the majority of his armour within the next few weeks, before the 8th Army has built up an adequate armoured force.
