The term "Blitzkrieg" was used to mean an mobile, armored unit that attacked through the center of the enemy line, which was followed up with the standard infantry attack. It was also a term that symbolized the drastic change from a war of words (Sitzkrieg ?) to a war of bullets and action.
The Blitz was first used in the attack on Poland on 1 Sept 1939 and then the attack through Belguim and thus bypassing the Maginot Line to enter France.
So after the fall of these countries, Germany began its air campaign against England in summer of 1940, known as the Battle of Britian.
The Germans continued to employ the Blitz tactic in other campaigns.
Answer:
This is incorrect. The Blitz was not (and had nothing to do with) "blitzkrieg". The Blitz was the name given to the German campaign of bombing British cities. It came AFTER the Battle of Britain.
