Bomb found at Paris St. Denis
Many of you will have seen on the news this past week that trains in and out of Paris Gare du Nord were halted when an unexploded bomb was unearthed on the tracks about 3 km from that station.
It was late made safe and widely reported as weighing 500 kg but, metric units aside, every report seems to have assumed it was an Allied weapon based on the fact that the the RAF and USAAF dropped a lot of bombs on French transport links (and the probability that few journalists even know the Luftwaffe bombed targets round Paris in June 1940 and again in August 1944). Has anyone seen confirmation of the bomb's origins? |
