Allied Bombing over Berlin - 1st Mission
Hi Gents,
On June 7th 1940, the NC (Farman) 2234 S/N 02 registred F-ARIN "Jules Vernes" bombed for the first time Berlin by dropping partly the 80 flamers & explosives 10kg-bombs on the airfield Tempelhof .This was the first allied bombing over Berlin. The 2nd mission was executed by british bombers on Sept'40 with no tangible results and some bombers were destroyed by germans. This mission was pursued by Shorts Sterling in 1941. After this, we have to wait till March'44 with massive US & British bomber raids over Berlin. I try to obtain the date/mission linked to the 1st allied bombing done by English, US or Russian bombers over Berlin. Does anyone know information about this? Cheers Jerome |
