Reims was bombed on September 30, 1959, since Germany thought that the French bomb development site was near Reims. The French site was not actually in Reims. France retaliated by bombing Bremen on October 17. On December 3, France bombed Brighton, so Britain would not continue fighting in the Third World War. On December 21, Germany bombed the City of Brussels. A heavy loss of live ensued, so France would later drop 2 bombs in and around Frankfurt. After the bombing of Frankfurt, German pacifists killed Hitler and concluded an uneasy peace to the Third World War.
