ToT & routes Rotterdam and Hannover raids 10-11.2.41?

Dear all,

Who can help me to the ToT of the Rotterdam and Hannover raids of 10-11 February 1941, and the routes taken by these two bombing forces?


Cheers, Theo

You are now in that strange period where things were very loose

I have the 3 Group Form B for the night

K. Via any point on the coast avoiding defended areas

L. At Station Commander's discretion avoiding defended areas

M. To be notified later, an early start is probable

Therefore the point of crossing onto the continent and the route to the target are decided at station level. Time over target was set by Group, but experience of looking at ORBs in this period suggests the bands are quite wide. Sorry do not have the subsequent TOTs
