from £9.43
| Saving you £8.56 (47.60%)
| RRP The most beautiful aircraft ever designed' is how many would describe the Spitfire. Together with the legendary and more numerous fighter of the era the Hurricane this aircraft was successfully used in 1940 to halt the might of the advancing German war machine. The Hurricane was a sound aircraft often 'the fighter pilot's choice' being both sturdy and offering an excellent gun platform. But many other aircraft also played their part in defending the British shores from a vast and well equipped German Air Force. Just why was the Messerschmitt Bf 109E a better aircraft than the RAF's defending aircraft during the early stages of the battle? Why did the Hurricane shoot down three times more German bombers than the Spitfire? Why was the Heinkel He 111 the most successful bomber of the era? Why was the Stuka dive bomber so feared? What happened to the squadrons of Defiants that experienced such mixed fortunes that summer? How did the Germans develop such a vast and advanced airforce in the light of the restrictions placed on them after the First World War at the Treaty of Versailles? These unique DVDs answer these questions examining the significance of the technology behind the different aircraft in the Battle of Britain.

The result was the Commandos initially ten units each of 500 men recruited from every regiment and corps in the British Army.

| RRP Disc 1 - Thunderclap: In the closing stages of the Second World War Air Marshal ""Bomber"" Harris took the controversial decision to target civilians by laying waste to German cities. With waves of bombers crossing the German border many towns and cities were razed to the ground. One such city was Dresden. Tens of thousands of people were killed in the attacks that ultimately realised their intentions that of crushing the German people's morale and bringing the war to an early end. However the debate still continues; was Air Marshal Harris the murderer of innocent civilians or simply a man with strong enough ideals to adopt a tactic which would ultimately lead to victory over the German war machine? Disc 2 - Operation Gomorrha: The aerial bombing in the summer of 1943 devastated the people port and buildings of Hamburg reducing a once prosperous city to nothing more than a pile of ashes. Whilst Allied bombers pounded the city the terrified citizens took cover in cellars and purpose-built bomb shelters in hopes of enduring the raids. Survivors emerged to find their city engulfed in flames in what was to become known as the Hamburg Firestorm. With the level of destruction; culture and architecture being completely destroyed the city was never to recover to its former glory. Such was the nature of the onslaught that scars of the aftermath of the bombings still remain to this day. Disc 3 - Operation Millennium: As American troops entered the city of Cologne in March 1945 they were awestruck at the scene of utter devastation which lay before them. The once great city had been targeted as part of the Allied ""Terror Bombing"" campaign a tactic that's morality is still debated today. Archive footage and eye witness accounts go only part of the way to describing the nightmare that had immersed what was Germany's fourth largest city.
