- W633645414 abstract "On September 17th Hitler postponed ‘Operation Sea Lion’ — the plan for the Channel crossing — ‘until further notice’, and on October 12th he gave orders that it was definitely not to take place before the spring, but that an appearance of preparation was to be maintained ‘as a means of exerting political and military pressure on England’.1 The British government was not to know, therefore, of the change of plan; but of course it drew its own conclusions from the worsening weather in the Channel. The First Sea Lord told the War Cabinet as early as September 2nd that the use of barges and small fishing craft would become impracticable after about September 21st, owing to the equinoctial gales.2 In the same period, daylight bombing tailed off, and the Luftwaffe developed the practice of regular night attack on London. There was no doubt about Churchill sharing the danger where it was greatest, at least during the week, for Westminster was one of the five London boroughs which in October–November recorded the heaviest proportion of high-explosive bombs.3 This was at a time when London was suffering far more than the provincial cities — though the turn of the latter was to come. On November 14th a new pattern emerged with the concentrated attack that night on Coventry, which suffered severe damage to its old centre by both high-explosive and fire bombs." @default.
