EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image, taken by a reconnaissance aircraft on May 18, 1943, captures the aftermath of one of the most daring raids of World War II: the Dambusters attack on the Ruhr Valley dams. The photograph, published on the front cover of The Sphere magazine, shows the flooding of the major industrial town of Kassel, approximately 30 miles downstream of the breached Eder Dam. The raid, led by the Royal Air Force (RAF), involved the use of specially designed "bouncing bombs" to breach the dams and cause widespread flooding in the heart of Germany's industrial sector. The success of the mission, which took place on May 16 and 17, 1943, marked a significant turning point in the war and demonstrated the innovative tactics and bravery of the Allied forces. The photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the destructive power of aerial warfare and the devastating impact it had on civilian populations during the conflict.
