This document is about the underground which is the only place where the population is safe while the war continue. It shows how hard the war is because it means that not only soldier are shot but also the population, it prove that it is an annihilation war.

Conclusion:

…

The battle of Britain is known to be an important part of annihilation war lead by the Nazi Germans. It was an important battle for the history and the depends of the 1st world war because if Britain had fall, the war would have been probably won by the Germans. That's why German army had to invade the United-Kingdom to win the war. To do it, they decided to attack continually by the air which was the only way for Germans to reduce the power of England and to make them surrender. The source 2 show us how big were the damage deal by the bombs employed continually by the Germans plane on English city. Almost everyday some houses, buildings, streets were destroy by the Germans. The source A denounces the brutalization from German camp, because they don't care about who they shot, they just want the U-K to surrender as fast as possible. That's a new thing in the war, never the population were directly attacked by an army, it show how important was the concept of annihilation during the war.

As Churchill said in the document 3 « The Battle of Britain is about to begin » and like he said in another speeches « we shall never surrender » because « Hitler knows that he will have to break us in this island or lose the war ». As we can see in the source 1, the English pilots were glad to fight for their country and intercept the Germans plane detected by the radar which is at this time used only by U-K.

The Nazis Germans wanted to make surrender Britain as fast as possible because they had to have a maximum soldier on the east side of the war against U.R.S.S. It was the concept of the Blitzkrieg. That's why they decided to attack them by the only way that can work against a protected island, the air. In fact, everyday Germans plane were dropping bombs everywhere in the English territory, especially in London where a lot of buildings, houses and street were destroyed continually during the battle of England.

To protect the London population from the bombs, there was only one place where peoples could be safe: The underground. It was actually the world's largest bomb sheiter and thousands people had to slept there as the blitz continued, as explain the source A. The priority was to evacuate the childrens , hundreds of thousands of children were evacuated from major cities and different newspaper took regularly news from this childrens to reassure the parents whose had to stay at the different English cities, like the newspapers « RADIO TIMES » in the source B.
