Dambusters - A
Landmark Oral History
£4.99
On the night of 16-17 May 1943, nineteen Lancaster bombers from 617 Squadron headed for Germany. Their mission, for which they had been trained under a cloak of absolute secrecy, was to destroy the dams of the Ruhr Valley & in doing so cripple the Nazi industrial war effort. It was to become one of the most famous raids of WW2. For the first time, acclaimed oral historian Max Arthur has gathered together the voices of the ' Dambusters', including Guy Gibson, commander of the mission & Barnes Wallis, who developed the iconic Bouncing Bomb. These voices tell of the hard training & sheer bravery that went into this legendary mission. We also hear from the German civilians who suffered the attack, who speak of the devastation that was wrought in their lives. This was a raid like no other, & in this extraordinary collection Max Arthur has created an enduring record of a unique event in British military history. ...

Product Description

Chris Wild lost his dad aged 11, leaving him to grow up in the care system. There, he witnessed the incessant physical & sexual abuse of children, with the only escape leading to the streets.

So many others like him, failed by the systems put in place to protect them, ended up with nothing but drink, drugs, prostitution & crime as their normality.

Later, working in a care home himself became the only way Chris could help, but he was shocked to discover little had changed & vulnerable children were still being failed.

In Damaged, he shares heartbreaking memories of the care system along with the stories of all the boys, girls, men & women he met along the way
- exposing why we must take action now to protect all of Britains forgotten children.
