Bombardowanie Londynu 24 sierpnia 1940

Witam, szukam informacji o pierwszym bombardowaniu centrum Londynu, które miało miejsce 24 VIII 1940r. Podobno było to przypadkowe bombardowanie, przeprowadzone przez kilka ( inna wersja że jeden) niemiecki bombowiec. Konsekwencją tego wydarzenia były zarządzone przez Churchilla naloty odwetowe RAF na Berlin.
Szczególnie interesowało by mnie jaka jednostka Luftwaffe dokonała tego bombardowania, a może są znane nazwiska pilotów którzy uczestniczyli w tym wydarzeniu? Pozdrawiam.

To winno pomóc

oraz rozkaz Göringa z dn 19. 08. 1940 , który nie dotarł do wszystkich jednostek Lufwaffe , a i tak uziemionych w dn 20.08 na lotniskach gdzie w większości panowała ..MGŁA , zatem tylko niewiele jednostek wystartowało .

Polecam dokumenty z serii CAB z NA Kev

Jak widać materiały archiwalne ...trochę (? ) się różnią od obiegowych ple , ple .

Mietku to raczej następna strona :

"But can we really accept the fact that it really was an accident? Let us look at some of the facts that have risen from the night of August 24th-25th 1940.

1/. The Luftwaffe always kept detailed accounts and maps showing the units involved in operations, times, and flight paths. Unfortunately many of these have gone missing over the years, and included in these maps would have been one of the bombing raids over south-east England on August 24th-25th 1940. If this was available the truth of what happened that night would possibly be regarded as fact and not the controversial mystery that it is.

2/. It has always been claimed that one, or two He111 bombers had intended to bomb targets at Rochester and Thameshaven. Both on opposite sides of the Thames some fifty miles to the east of London. Unable to find their target they dropped their bombload before making the turn to return to base. This then would indicate that the destruction caused by these bombs would be in an almost straight line from a point 'A' to a point 'B'. If we look at the map [ Document 37 ], we shall see that all areas marked with a solid circle indicate where the bombs fell on that night. Hardly possible for even two aircraft flying together to scatter their bombloads that far wide.

3/. Now, if we look at council records, wardens reports to find out damage done or casualties sustained, we also find another interesting aspect. Those circles in blue, show where bombs landed on East Ham, West Ham, Stepney, Bethnal Green, Hackney, Leyton, Walthamstow, Edmonton, Islington and Bloomsbury. All these areas received bomb damage between 2300hrs on August 24th 1940 and 0130hrs on August 25th 1940. Now if we look at the half red circles at a flight path flying over Stepney, Bethnal Green, Hackney and Finsbury. These areas recorded bomb damage between 0300hrs and 0340hrs on August 25th 1940. Clearly this was a separate raid. Then if we look at the green circles at Esher, Kingston, Twickenham, Feltham and Staines, areas that recorded bomb damage between 2350hrs on August 24th and 0030hrs on August 25th 1940. Hardly the same raid as the initial one on London's East End as this would indicate the German aircraft approaching from the west, nowhere near the proposed targets of Rochester and Thameshaven. "

W sumie FoW, jeśli jest coś jest konkretnego to być może u Johna Weal’a "He 111 Kampfgeschwader in the West", jak mi wpadnie w ręce to sprawdzę ..
