Product Description

Product Description

Classic stories of gallantry in World War II are featured in this edition of Mel Rolfe's title containing 20 dramatic but true stories of Bomber Command adventures. Some of them defy belief - like the RAF bomb aimer who was blown out of his Liberator over Warsaw at 400 feet without a parachute and made a poignant return in 1989 to witness the unveiling of a memorial on the crash site. Others defy logic - like two men of the same crew who survived a terrible crash, neither aware of the others' existence but both saved by the tolling of the same church bell. Journalist Mel Rolf has conducted his interviews and prepared the stories in such a way as to take the reader into the events as they happened.

Experience the fear 9 July 2008
By A. Hogg
Format:Paperback
having spent 2 years researching the crew of a lancaster that crashed near my home i brought this book to try and get an idea of what it was like for the young men of bomber command. i would recommend this to anyone who has any interest in WW2 aviation. Its the best book ive read in ages!
