That would have been a bridge over the Eems-canal. Sounds like it was a bombardment in support of the ground war. That area was not liberated until late April 1945. Going quickly through my books, I can't find anything that might relate to this.

Do you know if it was a heavy bomber or perhaps a fighter-bomber that dropped those bombs? Anyway, maybe we are looking for a needle in a haystack. I have a former-colleague living in the neighborhood. Maybe he can find someone who remembers the incident.

BTW, is that your dad in his uniform in 1940????
