V-2 Impact Points in UK
 
Hi there

I am wondering if anybody has information on impact points and deaths from the V-2 attacks on London. The Blitz Then and Now Vol III lists events but not casualties or locations.

Thanks

The IWM at Duxford had the original "plotting map" on dislpay for years. It was a large scale map of the London area, including suburbs, showing both V1 and V2 impact points very precisely. I remember well the surprise of finding that a V1 had landed in the park opposite my house, and after making local enquiries can confirm that the IWM map was exactly accurate.

Hope this helps,

Bruce Dennis
