Last time over Bremen

2012-06-25

Taking part in 1,000 raid on Bremen on the night of 25/26 June 1942 the Cz No 311 Sqn said its final G.B. to Bomber Command. This target was very unpopular in our airmen due to a loss of one aircraft nearly on each previous sortie.

The Sqn´s members were given their oportunity to retaliate by bombing  Germany for eighteen female and sixteen male residents to the hamlet of Lezaky having been shot dead on the previous evening. The hamlet had been burnt out and eleven children murdered on July 26, 1943 by car fumes.
