The
Clydebank Blitz could not be least described in a single
story. It is thousands of tragic experiences bonded together
by a single catastrophic event and like all things which
entail human activity it is complex.
Through
lessons learned elsewhere, Clydeside by 1941 had prepared
itself comparatively well to undergo aerial attack. No one
however could have predicted that in the first brutal onslaught
the Luftwaffe would dump the bulk of its destructive load
on the small industrial town of Clydebank.
