Operation Chastise, the audacious RAF bombing raid that struck at
the heart of industrial Germany on the 17th May 1943, brought
catastrophic damage to the three dams that served the Ruhr Valley.
Water and electricity supplies were disrupted in a key area of the
manufacture of Germany's war munitions, and the consequences were
disastrous. The German war effort was set back substantially, the
Allies celebrated, and Dr. Barnes Wallis became a national hero as
the designer of the famed 'bouncing bomb' that inflicted such
damage. Considered from an Allied perspective, the Dambuster Raid
was a triumphant success, not only of British engineering but also
of pilot endeavour. View it from the German perspective however,
and an entirely new story emerges. That is precisely what we have
here. In this image-heavy publication, Helmuth Euler explores all
facets of the operation in fascinating detail, offering a host of
illuminating insights into this much-studied event of twentieth
century history.
