The Luftwaffe, German term for their air force, was bombing anyone, anything and in particular the shipping ports of London. It was used as a scare tactic of the English people. It only strengthened their resolved to defeat the madman Hitler and the evil Nazis. That was their concept of the Nazis.
The "Battle of Britain" is famous because it was an extremely important battle of World War II. It was the first "turning point" in World War II, the first time since Hitler began overrunning Europe, seemingly unstoppable, that Germany had suffered a major military defeat. The Battle of Britain was the military campaign in which the German Air Force (the Luftwaffe) tried to overcome Britain's Royal Air Force and air defense system, with the intention of either forcing Britain to surrender or if it did not, making it possible for the Germans to invade. Bombing by the Germans began on July 7, 1940 and continued until May 16, 1941. The Nazis did not succeed in either objective. The irplans to invade Britain were scrapped. As a secondary benefit, opinion in the US shifted as those who had said that Britain could not survive, and therefore should not be helped, were proved wrong.
It was called the blitz for short. It was used first in the county Poland. It was also used in France. The strategy was they would have planes in front of the ground force that would bomb and weaken the enemy defense. Then the ground force would finish them off. The Nazis could not use this strategy after they took over Poland and France because the U.K had control of the air so they could no longer use that strategy.
