While waiting for WOFF (not that I have a lot of time anymore or I would be playing OFF) I have been reading my books. In several books, and mentioned by multiple people, it is said specically that German fighters would hold off from attacking Allied bombing missions until after they had dropped their bombs. On its face one would think an attack prior would be much more practical for obvious reasons. Was this actually a deliberate tactic or are people mistaking other behavior (waiting for additional units, waiting for archies to stop, etc) for this observation? If this was deliberate what was the tactical thinking? I have a couple of guesses but none seem to override the apparent benefit of attacking prior - at least in my mind.
