Just read an article D posted about French civvies killed by Allied bombs in 1944. Anyone have any idea of the numbers of French civilians killed because of German bombing in 1940 in the battle of France & how many killed during the bombardment for the Allied invasion in 1944 ?
Hi Owen Just reading this other thread http://ww2talk.com/forums/topic/53543-dday70-so-it-begins/ and there is a link to http://www.phares-balises.fr/detail.php?id=1036 - which says "Entre 1940 et 1945, les bombardements alliés ont fait près de 60.000 morts en France". This is a link within this BBC article - http://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-27703724. The second link on this subject is http://www.tallandier.com/livre-9791021004610.htm TD
