Flying Lancasters, this Squadron took part in many of the major Bomber Command campaigns against Germany and German-occupied Europe. Bryce was Air Bomber or 'Bomb Aimer' and the pages from the book detail some of the Operations that himself and his crew were involved in. Sadly, the whole crew were killed in action on 27th January 1944.
