THE DAMBUSTERS
70 Years ago today Lancaster's of 617 squadron took to the skies heading to Nazi Germany to used the first ever Precision-guided munitions . Fly just over 100 feet above sea level until they found their targets, taking AA fire all the way before dropping to 60 feet to drop their bomb. An amazing feat of bravery and courage.. Please remember their great deeds.
