The Blitz

Description

The final phase of the Battle of Britain takes place as the Blitz continues. One Londoner in every six is made homeless, but Hitler fails to gain supremacy of the air and the invasion of Britain is cancelled. Despite the pounding of London, morale remains high among Londoners. The Luftwaffe broadens its targets with attacks on Britain's major ports and an appallingly destructive raid on Coventry. Atlantic convoys suffer as U-boat packs exact a heavy toll. Over 40,000 are killed in the Blitz.
