November 21, 1944:


"The Germans became increasingly desperate as it became clear to them that their war was lost.
Germany's leaders placed a great deal of faith in newly conceived 'Vengeance' weapons that they believed would turn the tide of the war.
The infamous V-2 rocket was designed to wreak havoc on London."

"While hundreds of V-1s and V-2s rained down upon London late in the war, they had little military effect; still, the rockets unnerved many Britons and killed about 5,500."
