The RAF's most successful heavy bomber of World War II (1939-1945), the Avro Lancaster formed the backbone of Bomber Command during the large-scale night bombing campaign against occupied Europe. Produced in massive numbers (over 7300 up to VE-Day), the first examples entered squadron service on Christmas Eve 1941, and tasted combat the following March. The second of two volumes on the British bomber icon of World War II, this book details Bomber Command's massive nocturnal bombing campaign, its support for the D-Day landings, Tallboy raids against the U-boat pens in France and the battleship Tirpitz in Norway, and the final daylight missions of 1945.

Lancaster Squadrons
An unusually literary memoir of a WWII RAF fighter pilot
Here we have a unusual memoir of the wartime experiences of a RAF pilot in WWII. Not the run of the mill action packed tales of a Hun in the sun and the usual coterie of characters in the squadron. Instead a more languid tale of a long war spent in considerable discomfort. The reader is taken on a long journey along many airfields, bases, headquarters and bars and clubs and bordellos around some of the lesser known regions where the world war blazed. We get to breathe the hot desert wind, to freeze in the bone chilling desert nights, we smell the rot and sweat of the jungle. We drink too much, or too little, we see our comrades die needless and pointless deaths, we while away the boredom, we try and make sense of it all, and grow old before our time
A unique and splendid read.
