  1. Whilst it is important to remember, concentrating on the Lancaster does a disservice to all the Halifax, Wellington and Sterling crews who did the same work and took the same risks. In the case of the Sterling, even more given its limited service ceiling.

    1. I agree, but if you search my work you will see I continue to credit all branches of Bomber Command and the RAF Special Duty Squadrons.

    2. Jeffrey this is an historical document and does not give a disservice and as already stated the author promotes all Branches of the military during two world wars and other conflicts.
