Luftwaffe Raid On London December 28th/29th 1940 Help Needed Please.

Hi

This site has been recomended to me and am hoping somebody might have the answers.

I am interested in details of the Luftwaffe raid on London on the night of December 28th 1940. I am trying to find details of all the Units, aircraft types and the numbers involved. I am led to believe that there were between 100 - 130 aircraft involved and only the weather prevented a follow up attack.

One famous photograph from this raid shows St. Pauls Cathedral surrounded by smoke and fire. Another church nearby was called Christchurch, and this was totally destroyed. The ruins are still there today. During family tree research i have discovered that my four times Great Grandparents were married in this church in 1817, and would like to find out more details about this raid.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Regards

Chris A.
