How many bombs dropped during the blitz?
The bombing of Coventry was seen as the biggest test of British resolve up to this stage of the Blitz. Known as 'Operation Moonlight Sonata', over 400 bombers attacked Coventry that night and in the early morning of November 15th 1940 after the Luftwaffe attacked Coventry on the night before. Germany's intention was to destroy Britain's industry since Coventry was an important engineering and manufacturing city before World War Two and the factories based there played an important part in supplying Britain's military in the early months of the war. When finally Germany attacked Coventry the first wave of bombings created over 200 fires. The sirens first sounded in Coventry at 19.10. Pathfinder aircraft dropped parachute flares to mark the main targets. Incendiary bombs were dropped first. Then the second attack at 21.30, begun dropping the first high explosive bombs. The bombs did the job and at 22.30 Coventry were effectively cut off from the outside, as very few phone lines had survived the bombing and travel was very dangerous as fallen buildings blocked the roads. Despite the anti air fire, not one German bomber was shot down. Later one St Michael's Cathedral had been destroyed. The attack was brutal. By the time the attack was over, 75% of all buildings in the city were destroyed; 33% of all factories were destroyed and 50% of all homes. On November 20th, the first of two mass burials took place. In total 568 people were buried. So no one counted the bombs that were drop and in Germany there is no record on that so I advise to look at the damage and come to you conclusions.
