In World War II, Bomber Command was a division within the British Royal Air Force (RAF) responsible for conducting strategic bombing missions. The command was established in 1936 and played a pivotal role in the Allied air campaign against Germany and the Axis powers. In an effort to cripple the enemy’s war effort, Bomber Command’s aircrews conducted perilous missions to attack enemy industrial sites, transportation networks, and military installations.
