About this product

Product Information

During the immediate period before World War Two, the RAF modified its command structure to rationalize for rapid expansion. Bomber Command was divided into six operational groups, each flying the same type of aircraft. 3 Group had almost completely re-equipped with the Wellington by 4 September 1939 to carry out the second bombing operation of the war which was against German warships off Brunsbattel. In 1940 the first of the new four-engined bombers, the Short Stirling, came into service with the Group, being followed in 1942 by the Avro Lancaster. On 3rd/4th November 1943., No. 3 Group played a leading part in the first bombing attack in which heavy bombers made use of the radar bombing aid known as G-H. The target was Dusseldorf; bombs were dropped blind and good results were obtained. In July and August 1944, aircraft of this Group equipped with G-H maintained an all-weather attack against flying-bomb sites. Through the D-Day build-up, the liberation of France and conquest of Germany, formations of No. 3 Group attacked railway junctions, marshalling yards, troop concentrations, etc. During the week ending 25 March 1945, Bomber Command made numerous attacks to prepare for the crossing of the Rhine AUTHOR: Chris Ward is a highly respected aviation historian who has specialized in Bomber Command history. He has had access to wartime records and ex-squadron personnel. He lives in Lutterworth, Leicestershire. He is author of 5 Group Bomber Command.

Items were described as being in ‘good’ condition. However, one of the books I would describe as ‘fair’ rather than good. Another item was mistakenly sent as part of the order instead of the book that I ordered. I received a full refund for that book, but I had to follow up on an earlier email about this issue, hence neutral feedback.

  • Disappointed Recipient

    The statistics are impressive but the almost total absence of narrative is disappointing.
