Summary Note | Summary: The story of 617 Squadron of the Royal Air Force, which was formed early in 1943 for one special job--to breach the Moehne and Eder Dams in Germany. The overwhelming success of the great raid on the dams made the squadron famous, and it was retained as a unit and used for other equally perilous missions.
