Description
Formed in July 1942, the Pathfinder force was the corps d'elite of Bomber Command, tasked with marking targets and leading bomber formations to the right place at the right time. And the best of the force formed the crews of the master bombers, the aircraft in charge of the whole attack. It took nerves of steel for the crew to linger long high over the target area, often for hours, in constant fear of attack from fighters or flak. Here Sean Feast gives a detailed and comprehensive exploration of the exploits of one typical squadron in the heat of battle.

Media Reviews
'A stunning war book that dwells on the men of courage who made victory possible ... a dramatic if controversial account, long overdue.' Oxford Times 'Carefully compiled first-hand accounts ... excellent reading.' Flypast 'A detailed and comprehensive book.' Britain at War 'Gives vivid memories of pilots, navigators, wireless operators, flight engineers, air gunners and flying controllers.' Aeroplane 'The British government declined to award a campaign ribbon to Bomber Command. Feast's book clearly demonstrates why that decision was so utterly shameless, revealing the courageous achievements of an outstanding military unit.' Walter Boyne, Aviation History
