Press On: Flying Lancaster Bombers Over the Third Reich - Squadron Leader Frank Lawrence DFC DFM RAAF by Lex McAulay
Requirements: .ePUB reader, 457 KB
Overview: There have been many other books about the bombing campaign against Nazi Germany 1940-45 but this one is somewhat different and provides details of each loss to the squadron during the operational tour of a particular crew. This book mainly describes the experiences of one Australian volunteer for aircrew who could not have imagined what was ahead, in the long intensive training program to enable him to command a heavy bomber on night raids, or the courage required to 'press on' into the heaviest defences in the world.
Frank Lawrence was a young man from a country town in Queensland, Australia, with a basic education. He volunteered for the RAAF in 1941 and his natural qualities came to the fore as he progressed through the training system to fly Lancaster bombers on two tours of operations against Nazi Germany. In the bombing campaign against Germany the crews with determination to 'press on' to reach the actual target were valued by commanders at all levels. Frank and his crew of other young Aussies on 460 Squadron RAAF acquired this reputation and often returned with photos of the target or close to it.
