Cheshire V.C.
A Story of War and Peace
Braddon, Russell
Group Captain Leonard Cheshire, V.C., D.S.O., D.F.C, led the famous 617 Squadron over Germany. His ice-cold brain and nerve enabled him to perfect the most hair-raising bombing technique ever conceived: he not only took a major part in bombing raids that shook the wor!d, but also made a point of remaining over the target in order to report the damage in detail. He flew so Iow over enemy territory that he had the unique experience of guns firing down upon him; and his courage was recognised and summed up in the V.C. citation which said of him: He has a reputation second to none in Bomber Command.
