This series has been of enduring interest over many years, and is still highly sought after. Apart from the obvious interest to aviation historians, many people researching family history find these books invaluable, as so many families had someone in an RAF bomber squadron, who failed to return from active service.
With the interest in family history increasing all the time and with many now seeking detailed information about wartime careers of relatives, the series will continue to be used by those seeking to find out more about fathers, grandfathers and other relatives who flew with, and died in the service of Bomber Command during World War 2.

Soft cover. Condición: Very Good. 1st Edition. RAF BOMBER COMMAND LOSSES volume5 -During the Second World War, RAF Bomber Comand ?ew more than a third of a million sorties during the course of which 55,500 airmen were killed and 18,000 wounded and/or became prisoners of war. Over one third of all these casualties occurred in 1944 ? a year that opened with the concluding phase of the ?Battle of Berlin? and the costly Niirnberg raid. 1944 also saw a change in policy and a move away from area bombing to the more tactical targets such as rail centres, as a prelude to and a follow-up from the invasion of the European mainland by the Al- lied forces. Bomber Command also contributed to the attacks on the V1 launching sites . This volume details 3,527 individual aircraft losses in the European Theatre of Operations. The entries appear in date order, together with the unit, aircraft type, serial, crew list, and the circumstances in which the loss occurred. These are complemented by extensive Appendices. This sobering record is a testimony to the unsel?sh sacri?ce made by thousands of young men, who came from all corners of the British Empire and from the occupied countries, to help in the ?ght to free Europe from the tyrannical grip of Hitler?s Third Reich.
