But eventually, the tide is turned with the introduction of the 'Lanc'. Responsible for some of the most famous, and infamous, missions in WW2 history, from the Dambuster raids to the controversial bombing of Dresden, there was a deadly price to be paid in the lethal night skies over Germany.55,000 – half of all Bomber Command's aircrew – died in the skies over Nazi occupied Europe, with an average age of just 22. LANCASTER is a unique story of courage, fear, friendship, and the moral complexities of war.
