A personal tribute to all the men and women of Bomber Command.
Lincolnshire is known as Bomber County and for good reason.
Today only eight Operational Stations remain in the county but during the Second World War there were almost 50.
This article deals mainly with that period and has been created using many sources, most of which go into far greater detail than I have here.
From the early Royal Flying Corps flying FE2s in WW1 through to WW2 to the Cold War and Thor missiles and V Bombers.
