According to http://www.battleofbritain.net/0016.html the JU88, although originally designed as a meduim bomber, proved to be a very versatile aircraft and was fitted with airbrakes for use as a dive bomber. It was used in this capacity during the battle of Britain so I have no doubt it was used that way on the Eastern front as well. Michael Montagne

Was the German bombings of Britain worse in world war 1?

No, bombings in WW1 were not as bad as WW2 because of the use of bomber aircraft, which at anytime could fly to London. Also, the Germans were not as technologically advanced enough to travel from France to England with an army and invade. Search on Google images and you can see the damage caused by the Germans in WW2, compared to WW1 and you can see the difference.

Why did most Germans wanted the Jews to live in Ghettos?

It wasn't the Germans. Very confusing, yes. The Germans and the Nazis were in different groups, though they followed the same leader. It was the Nazis who wanted this so they could keep track of and control as many Jewish people as they could. _____________________ Most Nazis were Germans. Ordinary Germans were happy to go along with the Nazi's wishes as they benefited in ways such as getting the Jews' jobs or their houses or businesses.

Im a Bombardier Why do you think my job during the war is important?

Without a bombardier we don't need the plane and crew. The bombardier was responsible for hitting the target. Just before arriving over the target, the captain of the bomber would give the bomber complete control of the aircraft so he could guide it over the target. The bombadier had to decide if he could hit the target or decide to abort.
