Battle of Britain

battle of Britain was carnegie and death with no victory. D-Day was the stepping stone toward victory in Europe by allied forces.

Operation Sea Lion was the German plan for the invasion of England . The German war machine needed to have both air and sea supremacy in order for the plan to be effective . The Battle of Britain was the German attempt to gain air superiority which was necessary for an amphibious landing to be successful .

The air war was a conflict that Britain won and this thwarted any plans that Adolf Hitler had for conquering Britain .

Had Germany gained control of the English Channel by commandeering the French Fleet he then would have had sea supremacy which would have facilitated a seaborne invasion of Britain .

Britain launched a Pearl Harbor styled surprise attack upon the French Fleet based at Mers-el-Kebir in French Algeria and "scuttled" any plan that the Germans may have had of utilizing French naval assets to further Hitler's plan of invading Britain .

Hitler also lacked the resources to both defeat Britain and to launch the invasion of Russia (Operation Barbarossa) which was an upcoming military campaign and Hitler did not have the logistical capacity to do both simultaneously . He had hope that once he had defeated Russia he could then marshal his military resources and turn his attentions once again to Britain where he hoped to finally defeat Britain which would have meant that the Nazis would essentially control and dominate Europe .

Had Hitler not been frustrated by a resolute Winston Churchill and the British people then the US would have focused on a 'Japan First' policy rather than a 'Europe First" agenda .

The full form of MBT is the Main Battle Tank. It is a universal tank.

German pilots who were shot down over Britain in both World Wars became prisoners of war if still alive after crashing or landing. Exactly the same happened to British pilots shot down over Germany.

The Battle of Britain was a momentous struggle between the RAF and Germany's Luftwaffe. Hitler saw England as the last bastion of Fortress Europe, and by taking it he could gain mastery of the continent. However, the Royal Air Force would have decimated the invasion force, and so Hitler needed to forcibly remove it. it began with small scale attacks on shipping in the English Channel, before Goering (Head of the Luftwaffe) decided to attack the RAF's airfields. This drew the British fighters into massive clashes in the sky with the Luftwaffe. Goering had also realised the presence of radar, which was the RAF's key to success, but unfortunately for Germany had not realised its full importance. This meant that the Luftwaffe attacked the RAF's radar stations infrequently, believing they were some kind of aerials. They were much mistaken, and the radar operators could track the Luftwaffe's every move. Throughout the battle, the RAF was constantly outnumbered by Goering's Luftwaffe, having about 650 fighters versus Germany's 2500 fighters and bombers. at the lowest point in the conflict, the RAF were short of 200 pilots, though they were aided by a great many pilots from countries invaded by the Germans (notably Czechoslovakia and Poland, whose pilots possessed a real hatred for the Germans) and airmen from the commonwealth and British Empire. However, the German's effectively lost the Battle for themselves. German bombers accidentally attacked London, which the RAF retaliated for with attacks by Wellington bombers. This led the Luftwaffe to stop attacking the RAF and concentrate on attacking London by night, so starting the great Blitz, which lasted until the winter of 1941. After a final massed attack by as many bombers as Goering could muster on 15th September 1940 (during which the Luftwaffe's bombers were annihilated), the Germans stopped all attacks on the RAF. This was essentially the death blow for the Luftwaffe who had not wiped out the RAF, despite beliefs that they could and had. The German army withdrew from the channel ports, and Hitler scrapped Operation Sealion (the plan to invade Britain) in favour of an equally disastrous invasion of the Soviet Union in the winter of 1941. It was the last time any military force attempted to attack the island nation of the United Kingdom.

The Battle of Britain was an air battle fought in the skies over southern England in late summer 1940.

Most of the Battle of Britain was fought in very clear weather.

There were 102 airfields split into 4 groups = 10, 11, 12 & 13. For a full listing and other information I suggest a visit to the Battle of Britain web @ http://www.raf.mod.uk/bob1940/11group.html

i dont know i searched it but it comes up with wiki and we are not allowed to use wiki :( grrrr

The Canadian landings at Juno Beach by the 3rd Canadian Infantry Division and the 2nd Canadian Armoured Brigade were the only D-Day assault force to reach their objectives. The country's spirits were lifted. Canada had suffered heavily at the Raid on Dieppe and their showing at Normandy were exemplary.

The victory roll was a maneuver performed by fighter pilots when they returned to their base having shot down at least one enemy fighter.

Margaret lived a long and happy life in London, dying in 1824 at the age of 90. Her death notice was published in magazines at the time ("the Gentleman's Magazine", etc.) and can be found online.

It led to Hitler cancelling his planned invasion of Britain (Operation Sealion).
