Name two cities that were badly bombed during the blitz?

London, Coventry, Plymouth & Liverpool were cities which suffered great destruction by the Luftwaffe in 1940. These & other cities were Docks & centres of Industrial Production. Britain was heavily dependant on importing goods from overseas & the object was to destroy Britains ability to survive this onslaught, it was in combination with submarine warfare against merchant shipping in the Atlantic. For the first time civillians were involed in warfare on a large, national scale, and it caused great hardship & desperation. This then was economic warfare in the extreme. Although the Luftwaffe was defeated in the Battle of Britain by the RAF it is possible had they not switched from attacking the sector airfields to attacking the cities by night bombing, the Blitz, that the Germans could have reduced the effectiveness of the British Fighter defenses in the longer term. In the summer of 1941 the Luftwaffe was re directed towards Russia to support Barbarossa.
