- Adolf Hitler proclaimed that Germany would continue to guarantee Dutch and Belgian neutrality. ww2dbase [Invasion of France and the Low Countries | CPC]
- The Enabling Act of Mar 1933 was renewed by the German Reichstag even though Frick's Interior Ministry had wanted the government to have a larger say, and the Reichstag to give formal assent to new laws. The formal legal principle was retained that laws were, in theory, approved by "the Reich government as a collegium", and not by Hitler alone (this despite the fact that Hitler had long abandoned any pretence what the State was governed by a collective leadership, and instead issued decrees and directives on his own behalf). In a speech to the Reichstag upon the renewal, Hitler formally declared the German withdrawal from the Treaty of Versailles. ww2dbase [Adolf Hitler | Berlin | AC]
- The keel of submarine Scirè was laid down by Odero-Terni-Orlando in Muggiano, Lerici, La Spezia, Italy. ww2dbase [Scirè | La Spezia, Liguria | CPC]
- The first production Wellesley bomber took flight at Brooklands in Surrey, England, United Kingdom. ww2dbase [Wellesley | Weybridge, England | AC]
