War in the Air

Round the Clock (1x8)

: 26, 1954

From the Spring of 1943 to early 1944, the Allies were pounding Nazi Germany by day and by night. By day, formations of B-17 Flying Fortresses would battle their way through heavily defended skies to deliver their deadly bomb-loads. At night the Lancasters of RAF Bomber Command took the war to Germany where German civilians paid a terrible price for their leader's ambitions.
