Bombers over Wilhelmshaven!
 
TGW 1.1a and SH3Commander.
I was just leaving the docks in March '40 when I got the message 'Aircraft spotted!'. I though what the heck and indeed there was a formation of 4 bombers flying over from S to N. My gunner fired a few rounds but to no avail, other ships weren't reacting at all. Thankfully the bombers didn't drop anything. :o
Here are some pics of it.

Those are Focke-Wulf Fw 200 Condors, german aircrafts, so its good that you didn't hit them. (but in that case you could blame Bernard)

But, I have seen pictures that allies will bomb ports, but I haven't seen yet (june 1941), I guess it happens later in war. I'm also using GW.

Yep, later on in the war (about 44 onwards) just about every time you leave port you will experience an allied air attack:up:

It was a nice surprise upon leaving Bergen for the first time with the Grey Wolves mod. Suddenly there are bombers and all Hell breaking loose:o.

I was fortunate enough to see some German bombers bomb the snot out of Bristol or some southern port... This was around mid-1941.
