any photographs, films, stories relating to the Bombing of Cornwall during WW2
I'm making a film about Falmouth, Cornwall during WW2 and am trying to collect photographs, films and stories for the film. All input will be credited accordingly.
All help greatly appreciated |

The Cornish Studies Library in Redruth has photos of crashes and bomb damage but whether Falmouth is included is another matter. My book 'Luftwaffe Fighter Bombers over Britain' has quite a bit on the attacks on Cornwall by fighter bombers in 1942

Re: any photographs, films, stories relating to the Bombing of Cornwall during WW2
the Cornish Studies Library is to be my next port of call so that's good to know, thanks.
I will check the libraries for your book (working on a tiny budget) on another note, I don't suppose you would be able to help me pin down the exact date of the last air raid on the UK (excluding v2, doodlebug etc)? thanks again |

Last raid was on Monday March 20th 1945. As Mosquitos were returning from a raid on Berlin in the evening, German intruders mingled with the returning bombers. Airfields at Bottesford, Shipdham, Swanton Morley and Wendling were attacked.
