Does anyone know what the code 97 refers to ?

as in SU 97 18038. (See http://www.wwii-photos-maps.com/targetrussia/citynamesbeginningd/citynames-dabr-dzis/slides/Dewino%20%20086.html

From my notes I have 96 as radar (rdf) stations and 99 as Lesser Towns.

Come to think of it does anyone know what 98 is?

Not much help but perhaps a start:

Adam,

Many Thanks.

This was my starting point - http://www.wiki.luftwaffedata.co.uk/wiki/index.php?title=UK_Target_Codes

That was based on something originally from one of the volumes of The Blitz Then and Now .

Its the codes 97 and 98 that I'm interested in.

I would think that the Fishponds codes for Bristol have been built up from the annotations on Luftwaffe Target Photos similar to the ones I am currently looking at and that caused the current question.

By knowing the target group code I can better describe the target that was photographed, I hope....
