Diary Entry #2 - 23 August 1940
What they said they didn’t want to come true, came true. The Germans are gaining in numbers, meaning that Birmingham would be next on the list of being targeted. Being the second biggest city in the UK and homing to a number of air transport factories and needed industrial factories, they will soon become important targets for the Germans. This means that the army need to think of a strategy to find out how to protect vital areas of the UK, which are needed to win this war.

Diary Entry #1 - 9 August 1940
The radio said this morning that there was a massive explosion in London, today. No one really knows how to react to it. Everyone knows that its the Germans, but everyone just hoping that it’s not that bad. That the United Kingdom is not facing another war. I don’t think that we’re going to cope, from what I heard. I heard that it took them years to recover, that they’re still recovering now. I hope it will blow over soon because mother and father were discussing in the kitchen earlier, saying that is it gets any worse, we might have to move to the countryside with grandmother and father.
