Re: Operation Steinbock question

This may be an misunderstanding from language differences: the phrase "8 tonnes hit Plymouth" does not imply the city as opposed to the dockyard: it would be rather difficult to separate the two. Whether it excludes bombs that fell into the harbour I cannot say, but I would assume it includes all observed bombs falling there. Perhaps a relevant question would be how many ships were sunk (none, I believe) and how much damage was done to harbour installations?
