Re: Luftwaffe raids od SW Wales 4-6.7.42
On checking the Home Office Key Points reports there is mention of an attack on the night of the 1st July (1/2nd) on the South and South West coast and South Wales. No concentration reported and the only Key Point hit was RAF aerodrome LIandow. The Ulf Balke KG2 history shows this as an attack on Bristol, 240 Incendiary bombs also fell in the Birchgrove area of Swansea and one Do217 crashed on return. The Key Points report just shows RAF Station Manerbier in Pembrokeshire as being hit on the night of 5/6th July with the next main raid on the 6/7th against Middlesbrough. I could not find a mention for the 3/4th, perhaps a lone attack ?
