Except we already learned


Did you read it? The points you raise are valid and I tend to agree but, the summary of the article is bombardment has a role, it is not a magic bullet.......................

There is an overexpecation of bombing. But it is better than no bombing.

Yes.

Agreed. It will be interesting once the war is over to learn if something similar was the case at Dunkirk. I got a sense that the Wehrmacht didn't have much of a role at Dunkirk... that it was for some reason a Luftwaffe show.
