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.

Birkenhead is opposite Liverpool, then they see the large cathedral tower
and then the convoy docks are beneath. Birkenhead is part of the Mersey
dock complex and was also heavily bombed.

You obviously don't know. German bases were well into France and they flew
up the Irish Sea to get Liverpool, Belfast and Glasgow. The Norwegian based
planes would go across the North Sea.

If they can see those things then the lights of Dublin are
indeed irrelevant, note while the Anglican cathedral was
started in 1904 it wasnt completed intil 1960 so I suspect the
highly visible waterfront was rather more of a clue at night.

Indeed which meant turning right and following the coast of Walese
not turning left to Ireland.

A route that hardly goes via Dublin

You are very bright are you? The lights of Dublin guided the bombers to
Liverpool, the tower told them they were there.

note while the Anglican cathedral was
started in 1904 it wasnt completed intil 1960

Competed in 1979 with its work force off to New York to work at St. John's.
The tower was complete in the 1920-30s

so I suspect the highly visible waterfront
was rather more of a clue at night.

The tower was the giveaway.

Go away! You don't say. You figured that one out!

You figured that one out too! You are hard of thinking.

So do you believe they could see the tower from Dublin ?
