Re: Allied Bombing over Berlin - 1st Mission
Bonsoir Laurent,
Thank you for these interesting information re the 1st allied bombing over Berlin. Now, I have a clear picture about this.
Re the daring mission over Berlin done by the Farman, I agree with you about the unefficiency of the action, more political and psychological and of course used by the propaganda at the time where France was submerged by the Blitz.
However, The main action took place over the airfield Tempelhof where the bombs were thrown by hand then flew over Berlin and the outskirts when the farman flew back to France. The report of the mission is interesting especially the Flak track over berlin
Details are recalled on a book and various documents; I will post the name of the book and links tomorrow.
Regards
Jerome
