Overview

On August 17, 1943, RAF Bomber Command set out to destroy the secret research establishment where Nazi scientists were developing state-of-the-art rockets. Although the bombing ""crept back"" from its target, and the cloudless sky made the British aircraft perfect targets, they succeeded in disrupting Hitler's weapons program. Containing the remembrances of over 400 people from both sides-flight crews, researchers at the site, and foreign laborers forced to work there-this classic history is thoroughly irresistible. 30 B/W Illustrations
