What happened on this day in the Second World War, from 1939 to 1945, with a source for every entry.
About this page
Each day we list events from the Second World War that happened on that date, from 1939 to 1945. Every entry
names its source and links to it, so you can read further. Entries are sourced and machine-screened before
they go up, a subset is human-reviewed, and we add more over time.
THOR mission records show at least 20 Allied sorties (1 recorded unit missions) in the Mediterranean Theater on 1941-11-06, flown by RAF. Targets included LIBYA.
