In May 1943, a specially established RAF squadron made its
permanent imprint on military aviation history by flying a
high-risk, low-level, nighttime attack against German
hydro-electric dams vital to the Nazi armaments industry in the
Ruhr Valley. A comparatively tiny part of Air Chief Marshal Sir
Arthur Harris' four-month-long "Battle of the Ruhr," this one raid
had an impact totally out of proportion to the small number of
aircraft involved. It highlights the synergy of science and
technology, weapons development and production, mission planning
and practice, and the unflinching courage in the execution of a
highly dangerous bombing raid. Furthermore, it established a legend
that still resonates today.
