O. photo of St Thomas's Hospital bombing in London on Septemeber 9th 1940 (Fox photos on Getty Images)

P. The purpose of this source is to visualize the German plans to crush the morale of the British empire (helps inform how severe the conditions are)

V. The value of this source is it gives us a first-hand look at how progressively aggressive the German operations of bombings were progressing into

L. We are limited to the understanding of how the British civilians dealt with these situations -yes we can see the conditions but we don't see things like the London underground they used to protect themselves

Questions:

The Origin of the source helps to increase the value of the value of the source as our knowledge this is a hospital confirms the idea that the Germans' plans for the Blitz was to crush the morale of British civilians.

The Value of the source increases the value as we can see the first-hand experience of how severe the Blitz operations were. It gives us insight into German plans during this time against Britain.

This term is related to the operations of WW2 as it was Germany's direct war operations to take away from the British.

P. The purpose of this photo was to show the U.S's support in their aid to the British when they were under attack by German bombings

V. The value of this source is that it helps us understand the Allies' victory in WW2. Planes like these distributed by the U.S/British were used to execute precision bombings which helped them stop the Axis's productions

L. A limitation of this source is that we see the patriotism in this with the painted American spirit -but no other visuals show how this patriotism was challenged/how well these models did in the war against Axis powers

Questions:

The Origin of this source limits our knowledge of how they aided the British with these models. It seems like this model is stationed in the U.S and not fighting in Britain.

The Value of this source helps increase the value. Our understanding of how the Allies succeeded in using precision bombings to succeed in war.

The term Strategic bombings helps us understand the different operations used in the war. And which ones worked best -precision bombings to weaken enemy production.

A model by the Luftwaffe (German Air Force) in 1937-45. Used in the Spanish Civil War but used as well at the beginning of WW2 against Poland. Used to execute Germany's "Lightning War" (putting everything they had in action to assure quick victory)

P. The purpose of this image was to inform the public about the hope of taking down German operations to execute their "Lightning War" plan. This would instill hope in the British people and send a message to Germany that their models weren't invincible.

V. The value of this source is that it informs us of the progress the Allies were making in the war to gradually prevent/suppress German aggression.

L. A limitation of this source is it doesn't show if those attackers left damage or not to Britain. Thus limiting our knowledge of how effective the Allies were in this time of war in preventing German progression.

Questions:

The Origin of this source helps increase the value of the source as it helps us further understand the winning of the allies. The shot down of German airships shows the advantage the Allies had with their better tactics/models.

The Value of this source limits the source because we're given insight from the Allies perspective but not the damage the Axis did to the Allies.

This terms helps us understand the operations during the war because of the models made. These models contributed to operations such as the Lightning war by Germany.

-the German mountain troops landed at Narvik in the north supported by german paratroopers stiff resistance from the Norwegians reinforced by French and British troops and strong support from the royal navy slowed the German advance

The history behind the Enigma is a device used by the German military command to encode strategic messages before and during World War II. The Enigma code was first broken by the Poles, under the leadership of mathematician Marian Rejewski, in the early 1930s.

What does the machine do?

The machine sends encrypted code in order to send messages from one station to another.

Who used the technology successfully?

The Germans used it successfully from the beginning of the war till the 1930s.

1. Italy's Invasion of Egypt from its colony in Libya.

What were Axis Successes?
