The people of Schaffhausen are lining the roadside when the victims of the bombing are given their final escort on April 4, 1944, the year of the was. On April 1, 1944, the city of Schaffhausen and its environs became the target of American air raids due to misguided navigation. After bomber squadrons consisting of Liberator bombers dropped at least 371 incendiary and explosive bombs on the city near the German border, numerous large fires broke out. Forty people are killed.
