This definitive history of the Pathfinders and the role they played
in World War Two takes an in-depth look at the elite unit, from its
initial inception, and less than spectacular start, to its
development as a precision instrument that transformed bomber
operations. The aircraft, technology and weapons used are covered
in full, as are the characters involved with the unit. The author
also details the training and techniques deployed, in particular
the emergence of the Master Bomber and Long-Stop systems. Finally,
the Pathfinder Force's contribution to victory is assessed. This
comprehensive look at one of the war's most fascinating units will
give the reader a greater understanding of the unit's vital
contribution to the war and show how some of the techniques
developed are still in use today.
