Nickeling Raids
Hi Guys.
Do any of you know the term "Nickeling" ops that were used in Italy and what it meant. It looks like 2 choices ie 1.Leaflet raids 2.Dropping bombs on the Axis Forces during the night to keep them awake and harrased. Thanks Stefaan

Re: Nickeling Raids
Leaflets as far as I know. The same word was used in NW Europe, so it seems to have been standard RAF terminology.
