Synopsis

This substantial memoir, based on the actual writings of highly decorated WWII Bomber pilot Guy Gibson, chronicles his career in the RAF in his own words. It details his journey to becoming a Lancaster pilot and his eventual leadership role in the successful Dambuster Raid on Germany's Ruhr Valley Dams. Gibson's wartime memoirs remained unfinished, as he was tragically killed on a mission in September 1944.
