Members Rezdog Posted January 11, 2008 Members Share Posted January 11, 2008 Greetings from the North, Barnes Wallis was most famous for designing the bombs that took out the dams supplying power to Germany's industrial heartland in the Ruhr during WWII. The bombs were skip dropped by Lancaster bombers of the 617 Squadron RAF, 'The Dam Busters'. They did a pretty good job too. Rezdog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
