My Grandad (not the one from openshaw) was in the RAF in the war, got 3 bullet holes in his leg. I was only young but he used to tell me some stories. God rest his soul!

My 10 year old is a Horrible Histories addict (it is a good programme), the Hun used to use a tourist guide book to find places to bomb.
How the hell did Liverpool get any bomb damage?

He survived flying? Impressive.
My old man would never tell anything about the war, blood out of stone was easier!
We'll never know now!

I always thought Germans were really efficient.
The Mersey should be about 20 miles wide now!
Disappointed!

Cheers H, they say on HH, "They bombed Lűbeck first"

It amazes me on my travels around Europe, all the architecture that you'd think has been there for centuries, a vast majority of it was bombed in WW2 to piles of rubble.
The rebuilding they've done is outstanding!

on humberside they had an elaborate setup of lights in some fields west of where the humber bridge is now....all designed to mimic the layout of the docks....

so german aircraft having sighted the entrance to the humber estuary...would then use the humber as a guide...and drop their payload on what they thought was the st Andrews docks...

except it wasn`t...just some fields....lol...

Damned clever those Brit chaps!
The genius was the code breakers.

like the dresden & cologne raids...

where about a third of the city simply disappeared overnight...

in fact the i think it was the archetect albert speer who personally went to visit the aftermath....

and reported back to Adolf Hitler that another 4 raids like that and germany would be finished...

it was the first 1000 bomber raid....

and the ordnance rained down all night....

Are you referring to 'Bomber Harris' there?
He was a totally lunatic by all accounts!

there was a factory at Yeadon..

the Lancaster was built there...

i think there was a place at audenshaw as well...

anyway, this factory...which had been constructed as a `sleeper factory`..in the years immediately prior to WW2 was constructed underground....on the roof there were fake cows and sheep in `fields`....

the Luftwaffe never suspected....

i think some of it is still there...AE turbines were using it ....
