Attempts by dozens of enemy planes to harass British Convoys in the English Channel have
Attempts by dozens of enemy planes to harass British Convoys in the English Channel have so far met with little success.
Hit and run tactics have been foiled by the speed and skill of our fighters and by the hot and accurate fire of our Anti-Aircraft guns.
Rapid manoeuvring by our ships also helps to upset the aim of German bombers.
Picture shows: One of a convoys escorts, a destroyer, heeling over as she sweeps round in a fast turn.
Great columns of water are thrown up by bombs which
have missed, and explode harmlessly in the sea of the English Channel.
