I have a couple old books that have a list of German cities and indicate the type of industry targets that were there. Very general though. Anyone have a resource on the net or maps they have scanned with such a list. I think I have one from no6 from when they did the original ETO.

Schweinfurt is a must, need to dig back into a few of my bomber books to get more.

I have about 150 industry/railway targets in the list but many are listed as just industry or oil.
Dambusters dams a must to I think.

From Combat Crew: The Story of 25 Combat Missions Over Europe From the Daily Journal of a B-17 Gunner

These were the only targets given any description, it only seems marginally better than generic.

Schweinfurt- Ball Bearing
Villacoublay- Aircraft Workshop
Romilly- Ammunition
Stuttgart- Ball Bearing
Nantes- Subs
Emden-Shipping, Subs
Bremen- Subs, Oil Refineries
Anklam- Airframes
Wilhelmshaven- Largest German Navy Yard
Ludwigshaven- I.G. Farben Chemical Works

If ya got $100 there is this: The Strategic Bombing of Germany, 1940-1945

Every little bit helps zinhwk. Piece it together and try and be as historically accurate as possible.
