In one street, three fire bombs penetrated the roof and lodged in the attic. A fire-watcher, who was on the roof, at once went into the attic and covered the bombs with sand.

Several Incendiaries fell on a searchlight station. The sol dier in charge of the genera- tor extinguished the bombs and the work of the station proceeded normally.

The crews of A.A. batteries, searchlight units and balloon barrages are stated to have shown great skill, initiative and heroism during the raids.
