Gewerkschaft Victor in Castrop-Rauxel, Germany, was a significant coal mining operation vital to the Nazi war effort. The survey details the physical damage, production disruptions, and recovery efforts following air raids.
Authored by Bobby Sammons, this document contributes to the historical analysis of how bombing influenced Germany's industrial capacity, particularly in the oil and coal sectors essential for fuel production.
