During the Second World War, the towns and cities of Sussex had an important part to play. In this book, we explore the impact of war on the county. Chichester was the nerve centre for the county's civil defence organisation; Tangmere and various other airfields stood fast during the Battle of Britain and later provided a springboard for the Allied aerial onslaught on German occupied territories; places like Bognor Regis, Brighton and Hastings were repeatedly bombed by the Luftwaffe, while Eastbourne was the most targeted place in the South East, outside London. This book demonstrates how Worthing became a gigantic army camp, shows Newhaven's part in the ill-fated commando raid on Dieppe, and reveals how places like Littlehampton and Shoreham-by-Sea participated in the invasion of Normandy.
