...The Last Dambuster...

Post by MikeKozlowski »

...Squadron Leader George 'Johnny' Johnson has flown west.

EDIT: from the article:
Mr Johnson's team were given no time to practice but he still had to hit the dam's wall. Much to his crew's annoyance, he insisted that they fly over the dam nine times before dropping the bomb on the tenth run.
