The Dam Busters

A Pocket History

Beschreibung

617 Squadron was founded for Operation Chastise - the raid on the Ruhr dams. Using Barnes Wallis' bouncing bomb, hand-picked crews trained day and night over British reservoirs. In the film, starring Richard Todd as Guy Gibson VC, the raid has become the stuff of legend - the story of the Dam Busters.
