Description
‘Unsung Heroes – Tail End Charlies’
An alert rear gunner frustrates the attack profile of the JU88 night fighter. A burst from the newly fitted Rose turret, with two 0.5” instead of the old 303’s, is enough for the JU to peel off and look for easier prey. In this instance the pale moonlight helps another Lancaster home. Tail gunners were reckoned to have a life expectancy of about 4 weeks after joining an operational squadron – we will remember them.
