Has anyone else been watching and what do you think? Its great to see a programme all about bomber command and the valiant work and effort they did. Some of the footage is rather disturbing though. The survivor accounts are incredible though.

As for the Germans... the treatment they gave the "terror boys" was disgusting.

A superb documentary. If anyone can catch it then you should

I agree thought the program was compelling was says to Julie it must have been terrifying.

Although i would say all treatment by the Germans was completely bad, certainly the Gestapo and SS was .....words cant really describe how they treated prisoners, trk would moderate my post. But the treatment of our boys by the Luftwaffe was, as far as pow's goes exemplary and i take my hats off to them for honoring there foe's in such a humane way.


Linkage .......

Your right, the Luftwaffe took great care of our lads. Sort of like looking out for your own. They were all flyers and respected each other. Kudos to the Luftwaffe guys.

The ss and Gestapo though.... What pieces of work.


Lest we forget.
