 1941There are German and Italian attacks on Grand Harbor in Malta. One key target was the already damaged carrier Illustrious. A force of about 80 Stuka dive-bombers attacks with 1000 pound bombs. Although 10 are shot down, they hit the carrier again, the ammunition ship Essex, as well as the cruiser Perth. The Essex caught fire, but teams from the Perth extinguished the fires. The harbor facilities were also badly hit. [HMS Illustrious bombed in Malta] 1945There are attacks by the British 13th Corps near Roermond, Netherlands aimed at eliminating the small German salient west of the Maas.
