No More Bomber Command Main Force Raids on Berlin after March 1944
My understanding is that the last Bomber Command Main Force attack on Berlin took place on 24/25 March 1944.
Is there a straightforward explanation as to why the Main Force never returned to Berlin after this date? Obviously the diversion of the strategic air forces to tactical operations in support of Overlord would account for some months, but the Main Force did not resume raids on Berlin later in 1944 and 1945, when the effectiveness of the LW's nightfighters was falling away. Was it determined that Berlin could be left to the Mosquitos and the 8th Air Force? Thanks Don
