Bomber Command raid - night of 24/25 February 1943

WILHELMSHAVEN
115 aircraft of 6 and 8 Groups - 71 Wellingtons, 27 Halifaxes, 9 Stirlings, 8 Lancasters. Bomber Command documents make no comment on the outcome of this raid. Wilhelmshaven's report calls it a 'small raid' with 'a little damage in the town' and makes no mention of casualties. Once again, the bomber force returned without losing any aircraft.
This was the last raid on the much-bombed town of Wilhelmshaven until October 1944.
4 Mosquitoes bombed Brauweiler and DÜSSELDORF without loss.
