Served on 617 Sqn from 2001-2008. Those were some of the best days of my RAF career. Great tribute to the heroes that were The Dambusters. I can only be humbled to be part of the 617 legacy.

Lovely film and great site. I grew up on a RAF site near Newquay (St Eval) and remember hearing the planes. My father was a navigator in bomber command and then in coastal command.

Busy watching the film and used website for some information. All I can say is that the men and officers of 617 Squadron were brave beyond recognition, and their heroism and duty never be forgotten......

My Uncle Sergeant Leslie Douglas Haig Izzard DFM - 1153444 flew with 35 Squadron. He was a wireless operator/air gunner and flew in a Halifax Mk1 designation number L9504 TL-H, Leslie participated in three raids on Berlin as well as other ops. Brilliant website guys.

My father flew in Lancasters in WW11 as the Rear Gunner. He has since passed, his stories are incredible. I am still wondering if he was in SQN617 or not? His name was Albert Edward James Bassett.

Excellent site. We must never forget the bravery of all concerned with the raids.

I have been interested in the Dam Busters for as long as I can remember. Guy Gibson was one of my boyhood heroes, although in reality he may not have been the kind of person one could model oneself on. He was from a different background and an earlier generation, but he and people like him won the war for us. Simple as that. I have known RAF Scampton since about 1960, and to this day I feel that the place is seeped in the history and the \'feel\' of those long-ago wartime days.

One small criticism - I liked your website, but didn\'t like your poor spelling and punctuation!

I grew up in Lincoln during the War and well remember seeing the Lancasters from Scampton flying over the house at dusk each evening on their bombing missions.
