A detached, yet moving account of the first 1,000 bomber raid on Germany in WWII, 'Operation Millennium'. It reduced the population of Cologne by 95 percent and was the terrible culmination of months of pressure from 'Bomber Harris' to get this new and deadly strategy accepted. It was an extraordinary feat of organisation involving more than 6,000 aircrew, 53 airfields and 1,048 bombers. The book has a foreword by General Adolf galland.
