It would have been a waste of aircraft, lanc. There was nothing of importance, and that's not even meant as an insult.

RCAF pilots were good too, I'll allow it.

hey we've got plymouth, falmouth and exeter...........

all of which were bombed by the nazis............

 

[mosquitoman]

All there is to bomb in Cornwall are ports (important targets) and pasty factories (not so important targets)

 

[GermansRGeniuses]

OH, BUH-ZING!

 

[plan_D]

Airfields are much more important than Ports, when the enemy is trying to achieve air superiority.

 

[the lancaster kicks ass]

well they bombed the ports of falmouth and plymouth.........

and there weren't pasty factories (down with ginsters!!!) as such, you either made you're own or got them from a bakery, and no pasties, no work, no work, no food or people to man ports, without the pasty the whole of cornwall would come to a standstill!!!

Please note that the Flgt Sergeant in the OP was a New Zealander serving in a UK-based RNZAF squadron. GO THE KIWIS!

No lanc, without the pasty people would eat normal bakery products such as danish pastries or croissants Or even bread.

Newsflash lanc, Plymouth is in Devon, not Cornwall...

CC many plymothians enjoy eating cornish pastys, primarily because devonshire folk can't make pastys to save there lives, i bout a "traditional" one in barnstable, would have got more meat in the vegitable one..............

 

[Nonskimmer]

I tried the Cornish clotted cream, while I was in Devonshire. It's...different.
