I was told by my parents that the first military action taken by Germany
when it attacked the Soviet Union in June of 1941, was to bomb the
Czernowitz airport.
Possibly they attacked both the railway station and the airport
simultaneously
and what people noticed first depends on where they were at the time.
In the summer of 1941, we lived on the Blumengasse quite close to the
airport.
