Very interesting story about the "flaming onions", I never heard about these .
Something else: A while ago I said I would try to find out more about the bombing operation on Chateaudun. This is what I got from the departemental archives: it mentions the bombing of the marshalling yard on July 31st and long delay bombs that exploded up to 48 hours later.
There is an air picture of the eastern part of the town, not very far from St Cloud, so I guess you must have heard everything. The place was bombed again because the July 7th and july 14th attacks only partly destroyed the german logistics.
