Bomber Command strikes Dusseldorf
Saturday, December 7, 1940 www.onwar.com
Over Germany... British RAF bombers raid Dusseldorf during the night (December 7-8).
Over Britain... There are no air raids record — day or night — for the first 24 hour period since August 7th.
Wow! That’s “Wild” Bill Donovan, founder of the OSS (now the CIA)?
Every now and then, like last year when one edition you posted included a picture of Ambassador Kennedy’s son, something just really grabs you by the historical throat.
As always, thanks for the pings.
