Zusammenfassung: | "The Allied bombing of Berlin was the longest and most sustained bombing offensive against one target in the Second World War. This work draws attention in some detail to the major raids on the Reich capital by RAF Bomber Command from the late summer of 1940 to September 1943. It begins with the reliable but largely ineffective twin-engined Blenheims, Hampdens, Wellingtons and Whitleys, through to the introduction into front-line service of the four-engined 'heavies' - the Stirling, Manchester and Halifax, which bore the brunt of the bomber offensive until the advent of the incomparable Avro Lancaster in 1942 and the superlative Mosquito. On 30 January 1943, on the tenth anniversary of Hitler's usurpation of power, two formations (each of three Mosquitoes) appeared over Berlin in daylight and interrupted large rallies being addressed by Goering and Goebbels.Sir Arthur Harris, Commander-in-Chief, RAF Bomber Command, hoped to 'wreck Berlin from end to end' and 'produce a state of devastation in which German surrender is inevitable'. But the 'Big City', as it was known to his faithful 'old lags', was never completely destroyed. |
