Peenemunde Raid, Paperback/Martin Middlebrook

On the night of 17-18 August 1943, RAF Bomber Command attacked a research establishment on the German Baltic coast. The site was Peenemunde, where Hitler's scientists were developing both the V-1 flying bomb and the V-2 rocket whose destructive powers could have swung the course of the War. The raid was meticulously planned and hopes were high.
