Sixty years ago, over 100 aerodromes in east and north-eastern England were occupied by the men and machines of RAF Bomber Command. Thereafter they played their part in the battle against the V-weapons with one of the last raids of the war being carried out against Hitler's personal mountain retreat.Each airfield has been explored and photographed in the 'then and now' style of Roger Freeman's previous books for After the Battle on the US Eighth and Ninth Air Forces. The tenure of the majority of the bases was brief -- some six years -- but during that time more than 55,000 men lost their lives while flying from them to attack targets on the Continent.Split into seven operational groups, the airfields of Bomber Command formed the cornerstone of Britain's efforts to carry on the war against Germany in the years before the landings in Normandy.
