was
"blitzed"
for
forty
minutes
yesterday
afternoon.
The
raid
was
from
2:20
p.m.
until
3
o'clock.
.Three
bombing
planes
were
indiscriminately
dropping
their
missiles
on
the
port
even
as
the
banshees
sounded
the
dismal
imminent

alarm.
There
were
direct
hits
on
military
objectives
including
industrial

sections
go

in
true
enemy
style,
hospitals
and
schools
were
concentrated
upon.
The
planes,
however,
were
friendly
and
the
missiles
were
flour
bombs.
It
was
all
a
very
realistic
simulation
of
what
"might
happen
here"
and,
undoubtedly,
caused
many
to
reflect
what
it
might
have
