Target Photos of the Ruhr Dams

Naturally the information about targets was updated, taking into account damage caused by previous operations or renewed enemy activity. The photographs of the Möhne and Sorpe Dams are taken from updated target material that was produced as late as 1945, although these two photographs would have been included in the original 1943 material.
