    Forgot to mention how they maintained the low altitude at night over black water, they had 2 spot lights pointing straight down at slight angles, when they were at correct altitude, the 2 circles would become one, as they get lower the circles come together as lights on angles. This was only way as you couldnt always define where the water was at night

    Never mind the criticism, we all know, over 70 years later, what they did is still known to today's teenagers. Remember, a lot of these crews were teenagers or early twenties themselves, boys, which were what these guys were, what they accomplished at the same age as today's teens, made them the greatest generation ever. Could you imagine today's wimpy, phone watching and texting lads who are often without jobs, mentally unstable because they use too much weed, feckless, rising up to do such heroistic efforts, even volunteering to do so? I don't think so!

    Post war re assessments downplayed the raid as a largely propaganda victory pointing out that the Germans rebuilt the damage done in only 5 months. Dan Snow in his 2013 BBC article restores the balance. The raid did huge damage, in particular pulling resources from the construction of Normandy coastline defences. The propaganda boost was huge, not least in demonstrating the sheer ingenuity and flying skill required. Worth watching just for the sound of those Rolls Royce engines and the final shot of the restored Lancaster.

    I am related to one of the Knights Templar sent on the third crusade. The old one that died in battle a world away, because he put up a fuss giving up his land and seat to the child prince/ king Edward. The crown sent a 60 yr old man to crusade as a type of punishment, I believe.

    Yet another wasted railway route. Commencing at Burton upon Trent through Derby and on to Nottingham it created a direct route from the West Midlands to various parts of the East Midlands such as Nottingham and service towns like Ilkeston. It would now have been great value to the rail network.
