Abstract

In this article I would like to introduce the first allied bombing against the capital of the Third Reich, Berlin in early June 1940 by a French Navy Aviation unit. Beside the chronological description of the bombing operation, I will show the type and the characteristics of the bomber that has been transformed from a civilian version with a long range and finally the history (fate) of the combat versions.
