Ddey65 ◊ 2020-09-10 22:22	Really? I thought they just swiped the Blitz name from Opel and added it to the later CFs. Hey, you learn something every day.

Quote The Blitz was a German bombing campaign against the United Kingdom in 1940 and 1941, during the Second World War. The term was first used by the British press and is the German word for 'lightning'. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Blitz
