LAVANNES CHURCHYARD Coll. grave 7.

According to Chris Ward ‘A post-raid analysis concluded that a strong wind had pushed the attack into the western half of the city (Munich), where 291 buildings had been destroyed and 660 severely damaged. The aero-engine assembly plant at the BMW factory was put out of action for six weeks and many other industrial concerns also lost vital production.’ (Ward with Raymond Glynne-Owen, 207 Squadron p. 165)
