Enemy Coast Ahead£7.95 First published in 1944, Guy Gibson’s Enemy Coast Ahead quickly became regarded as the classic Bomber Command book, following Gibson’s RAF career from flying the Hampden and Manchester at the beginning of WWII to the triumphant return home of the Lancasters from the famous 1943 Dambuster raid which Gibson led and for which he was awarded the Victoria Cross. Enemy Coast Ahead is also the inside story of life in Bomber Command throughout the first five years of WW2, culminating in breath-holding drama as the RAF planned, practiced and strove towards breaching the dams on that famous night in May 1943.< Product descriptionISBN: 9780907579625 Binding: Paperback Dimensions: B Format Pages: 256 Photos/Illus: b&w photograph section
