Pretty much, although the German air force losses were also a factor, the provision of fighter support was decreasing and the decision to switch to the Blitz was partially influenced by resources and the experience of the Spanish civil war. This wasn't specifically limited to London though, the Germans were bombing most British cities that were in range. Without fighter escorts targeting British airfields was increasingly dangerous (Especially given the use of Radar which was effective in allowing British Fighters to intercept German aircraft). Yeah, RADAR kept us in the game long enough for the Germans to make tactical errors. Goring was a knobhead and Hitler should have kicked his arse out earlier.

Hitler's classic failure was in trusting his 'political officers' more than his military officers. Letting Himmler have so much control over the Waffen SS, Goering over the air force, rather than actual qualified proficient generals (of which the German war machine had plenty of). One of the surprising successes of the Blitz was the Anderson Shelter, which had been judged as useless, but made available because 'it was better than nothing' and would be good 'for morale'.

A lot of Germans also speak pretty good Russian as well. Much less popular in the generations since 1988 mind.

We don't do possession; we do defense and attack. Everything else is just wa**ing with a football. |

To be fair, I think this is a much more valuable discussion than wondering whether it's ok that a fictional, time-travelling, alien with two hearts and the ability to change appearance every couple of years will have breasts or not.

Employee of the month is a good example of how someone can be both a winner and a loser at the same time. |

Spot on. The Dalek tendency to utter all their dialogue as if they were on the podium at the Nurenburg Rally is a dead giveaway :-)
Well I think Simon's head is large; always involved in espionage. (Name that tune) |
