Operation Chastise by Philip West - Lancaster Greetings Card
During the night of May 16/17, 1943, 19 Lancaster’s of the newly formed 617 Squadron carried out daring raids against four dams in the Ruhr. The Primary target was the Mohne dam. Here we see Flt Lt Maltby and crew in AJ-J flying clear of the Mohne before their Upkeep mine exploded against and breached the dam.
Operation Chastise became a legend in the annals of the RAF and military history.
