Now last time I checked Dublin was a LONG way from Liverpool
so pray tell how having its lights could aid the Luftwaffe target that
city
?

It is due west of Liverpool. See Dublin to the west then steer due east
and
you hit it.


Or Holyhead, Colwyn Bay, Birkenhead etc.

Fact is Luftwaffe bases were in Norway and France, they werent
about to fly across the entire width of England, cross the Irish Sea
and then come back again. Its just silly.


Perhaps the Americans were
helping by not blacking out NYC in 1940 ?

You have a sense of humour I see.


How about the lights in Stockholm - were they a beacon pointing to
Newcastle do you think ?

Oh you are fun.


While you are merely funny.
