Consider the following scripts (from popup.txt)

1. These are probably misnamed as they just update the map symbols and do not present any report. I think I changed the name, locally, to German/Soviet Front Garrison Update Map Symbols 1941

2. The 1st script block has a dependent link to the The Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact? event. I believe this is wrong for the following reasons.
- There is nothing that changes the garrison requirements (see mobilization_1.txt) on rather the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact is agreed to or not.
- If #LINK= 600[1] was appropriate, then it would be used in all 3 of the following script blocks.
- In fact, if the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact is not agreed to, (i.e. #LINK= 600[1] fails), I suspected that the following will result in a mess.

Thanks, I've made a note to take a look into this.
