NeverMindTheDambusters

NeverMindTheDambusters Jane! Look what arrived yesterday! Finally got a a copy. Lovely book. Glossy pages, wonderful photographs and a book mark ribbon thingy. Glorious.

Cheers History Rage Podcast !! Now you too can join me in a cup of righteous indignation every time another TV documentary on bomber command fails to mention the Halifax ...

Tonight International Bomber Command Centre I will be thinking about the many who failed to return from Bomber Command including P/O Mieczyslaw Ziegenhirte of the Polish 300 Squadron who was killed in February 1945 and had a son Stefan who was born on VE Day and never met his Father.

Quote of the Day - “My Dad Volunteered for a Second Tour with Bomber Command as it was safer than teaching the Poles to fly” 😆 Another fabulous family story told to the team here at Duxford today. His father did a tour on Wellingtons with an RAF Squadron then was posted to

🗓️ 💥 #OnThisDay in 1943, the Dambusters Raid was launched, breaching German dams. But as James Jefferies rages, there's more to Bomber Command than just Dambusters and Dresden. Other squadrons are available too! ✈️ 🌊 Listen now: pod.fo/e/228102 #onthisday #otd #WWII

16th May 1943. Famous for Op Chastise yes, but also the day my great uncle Jack Clyde & the Pennicott crew arrived at 10 Sqn to begin their operational tour, and the day the Luftwaffe dropped a parachute mine on my gran's (Jack's sister) street, killing 35 of her neighbours.

This morning I made a visit to the grave of Eileen Hunt at Besthorpe in Notts. She was among 26 ATS Soldiers killed when the Imperial Hotel, Great Yarmouth was bombed on 11/05/1943. Many thanks to SallyB McGlone for your fascinating tweets and work for Commonwealth War Graves Evermore Project.

"How to tell when it's James' payday" The stacked books are purchases and Deighton is my current reading. I have already got Sweetman's book but it's a hard back and I'm gradually replacing them with paperbacks.

Proud of Jane Gulliford Lowes to wave the Bomber and Coastal Command Battle of Britain flags at this. Also 100% "the few"!💪👏
