    Memorial Plaque: V1 strike 3rd July 1944
    Sloane Court,London.


    The bombing was the single greatest incidence of loss of life for American servicemen due to a V-1 blast and was the second worst V-1 incident in London (1). The exact death toll from the blast remains unclear, but at least 65 American servicemen and nine civilians lost their lives. Military casualties included members of the 130th Chemical Processing Company and the G-5 Divisionof the Supreme Headquarters Allied Expeditionary Forces (SHAEF). Members of the Women’s Army Corps (WACs) were among those injured.
