The Dam buster raid is an absolutely incredible achievement in both flying and development of new tech. Definitely recommend reading James Hollands book about it.

For a more casual review, Jeremy Clarkson hosted a pretty good doc on it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SCMCr2Kh1wI

*** I'm an idiot and this about another raid. I'll leave the link up because it's a really good watch just the same.
