Berlin Bomb Damage
The damage to Berlin was not great but the demonstration that RAF bombers could hit Berlin proved that the Nazi regime\'s boasts to be false. In turn Hitler ordered retaliation against London, a decision that was to have a significant impact on the course of the air war over Britain.
After Luftwaffe planes had bombed London on the 24th August, probably by mistake or simply because they were unloading their bombs randomly in order to escape fighters, Churchill ordered the first deliberate bombing of the German capital.
