Attack on Dieppe 25/5/40
Anybody know which Luftwaffe bomber unit was responcible for the devastating air raid on Dieppe on 21th May 1940? As many as 15 vessels (including two hospital vessels) were sunk in the harbour and the fairway was blocked by magnetic mines.

Any information gratefully received.

Regards,

Steve

Doh! Yes Peter you are right the date should have read 21st May 1940. There was another attack on the night 24th/25th May. Any information on either gratefully received.

Regards

Steve
