Many of the 617 Squadron crews who took part in the famous attacks
on the Mohne, Eder and Sorpe Dams and also the raids on the
Dortmund-Ems Canal did not return.
This book takes the reader to many of the crash sites that
resulted. They include the coast off Texel, Rees, Marbeck,
Emmerich, Hamm, Ostonnen, just north of the Mohne Dam, the former
airfield at Gilze-Rijen in Holland and Castricum-aan-Zee, also
Holland. The Dortmund-Ems Canal sites are Noordhorn, Recke,
Bergeshovede, Ladbergen and Den Ham in Holland. All these sites can
be visited within a week's tour by car or public transport.
The book is illustrated with then-and-now photographs of the
sites, the personnel involved and the aircraft originally flown.
Local places of interest are listed to allow those aficionados of
this famous squadron to broaden their knowledge and also enjoy a
continental break.
