My dad spent the afternoon digging out the dead and wounded from the Metropole and my Mum helped out with a group of kids whose residence had been hit. That might have all been later on the same day as the strafing but I can't be sure. They both told me about their parts in that raid separately. He was newly arrived in Bournemouth that March while she had lived in the Boscombe are since before the war. She worked at Fuller's Tea Shop.
