A month before the Normandy landings, Mosquito aircraft of Bomber Command laid mines in

A month before the Normandy landings, Mosquito aircraft of Bomber Command laid mines in the Kiel Canal, the most heavily defended waterway in the world. As a result it has been estimated that not less than one million tons of cargo to and from overseas and about half that amount of coastwise cargo was held up. This air view of the Kiel Canal taken by an RAF reconnaissance aircraft shows massed shipping held up. Circa June 1944
