Re: Need wheat harvest dates on Channel Coast in 1940

Hello

According to German sources (Lagebericht des Militärbefehlshaber), the harvest occured in the North of France during the last week of August 1940 and in the first week of September. This was later as usual, but the lack of manpower, despite heavy POW involvment, and not so good meteorological conditions explain that.

Regards
