Re: Blenheim Massacre over France
According to Middlebrook's The Bomber Command War Diaries, on 10 July 1940, 40 Blenheims were sent to bomb airfields at Amiens and St. Omer. Of the 6 Blenheims lost, 107 Squadron lost 5 (of the 6 dispatched) at Amiens. There are no other missions listed that month with anything near 7 Blenheim losses.
