About

About the Royal Air Force Squadron 617, originally commanded by Wing Commander Guy Gibson V.C. during World War II.

The squadron became known as the "Dam Busters" because of Operation Chastise, a mission using highly specialised bombs to destroy Ruhr dams in Germany.

The book also covers the subsequent history of 617 Squadron, as an elite squadron specializing in attacking difficult targets with outsize weapons and precision techniques. Among Gibson's successors as commander was Group Captain Leonard Cheshire V.C.

Illustrated throughout with numerous monochrome images.
