After an exhausting session with Victoria's Secret Police, Gordon
blurted out:

I have a photo of a dock getting bombed with this date on the reverse. The
bombing is localized, although a stick of bombs has set off a tremendous
secondary explosion right on the wharf.

Does anyone know what targets the RAF hit on the night of Sept 8 1940? I would
assume Germany (agfa paper, Creditz stamp) for a target, but it may not be.

From Middlebrook's "The Bomber Command War Diaries," page 81,

8/9 September 1940 Ports, Barges

133 Blenheims, Hampdens, Wellingtons and Whitleys to Hamburg, Bremen,
Emden, Ostend and Boulogne. The heaviest raid was by 49 Hampdens on
the Blohm & Voss shipyard in Hamburg. 8 aircraft lost, 5 Blenheims and
2 Wellingtons in the Boulogne and Ostend raids and 1 Hampden in the
Hamburg raid.
