[edit] 30 May 1940 Attack

Is there a source for this attack on this date as quoted in the article? It sounds very much like the attack by 63 Battles and eight Blenheims on bridges over the Meuse and German columns near Sedan on 14 May from with 40 aircraft in total shot down (referenced in Richards, Denis, The Hardest Victory: RAF Bomber Command in the Second World War. London: Coronet, 1995. p.60-61. ISBN 0-340-61720-9. and in March, Daniel M. British Warplanes of World War II. London: Aerospace, 1998. ISBN 1874023 92 1.) after which, it was switched to Night attacks not withdrawn from operations.Nigel Ish (talk) 20:50, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
