Operation Chastise , the Dambusters Raid as it became known, was undertaken by 19 Lancaster bombers of 617 Squadron on the night of 16/17 May 1943. For the loss of 11 aircraft, the Mohne and Eder dams in Germany's industrial heartland were breached, and a famous if controversial victory won. This is one of the most comprehensive accounts of this legendary mission, from the development of Barnes Wallis' 'bouncing bomb' to every moment of the raid itself, under the charismatic command of Guy Gibson, VC. It recalls a time of commitment, perseverance and sheer dogged determination in the face of dangerous and improbable odds.
