About the Battle of Britain Week
United Kingdom & Ireland
Ends: Sep 21, 2025
DESCRIPTION:
Battle of Britain Week encompasses the anniversary of the Battle of Britain's turning point. The battle occurred during the summer and fall of 1940.
By this time, World War II approached its first anniversary, and Hitler's forces had over-run much of Europe. Britain was the final prize he wanted, and he set his sights on the island nation. Up until this time, the German military appeared to be unstoppable.
Hitler believed the air assault on Britain in July of 1940 would be easy. However, the English had a secret weapon, the Dowding System, which allowed the Brits to deploy their air force throughout the country, back by radar. The Dowding System provided early warning of attacks, allowing the Royal Air Force to engage the Luftwaffe effectively.
On September 7, London became the target of the bombing campaigns. By September 15, 1940, the British Royal Air Force got the upper hand. Though the battle would continue into October, today is the day it became clear to the German high command that taking Britain would require more resources and time. They eventually withdrew, and Hitler's forces never conquered Britain. Within 14 months, the United States would enter the war.
