Luftwaffe Target Choice
 

How did the Luftwaffe choose their targets when not part of a major raid (especially during poor weather in Aug 1940), did they select by area, target type or location? Or did they have a priority list to work through?

(b) Where is it?

Re: Luftwaffe Target Choice
 

a) Its a study by General der Flieger Paul Deichman
c) on my HD and most probably easy to find on the web.


Have to say Nick Beale you have a way of asking.

Thanks all, were any records made of the targets selected on the day, similar to the RAF Operations Records Book ?

Succinct isnt it. I find it more in the realms of rude, But there you go.
