On March 21st, 1945, the British Royal Air Force set out on a mission to bomb Gestapo's headquarters in Copenhagen. The raid had fatal consequences as some of the bombers accidentally targeted a school and more than 120 people were killed, 86 of whom where children.

Kameraden,

I'll avoid flying this mission, just saying.

S!

Was reading about the history of this mission.  It's incredibly sad.

The force left RAF Fersfield in the morning and it reached Copenhagen after 11:00. The raid was carried out at rooftop level and during the first attack, a Mosquito hit a lamp post, damaging its wing and the aircraft crashed into the Jeanne d'Arc School, about 1.5 km (0.93 mi) from the target, setting it on fire. Several bombers in the second and third wave attacked the school, mistaking it for their target.

 

I had no idea that this occurred.  Very tragic.

That movie looks very well done. 

For me I have to separate reality from game, otherwise I would not fly again. How many missions were done without collateral damage to civilians and POWs? 

I have deep respect for any pilot/crew in his/their attempt o fulfill the mission, but it ends there, it’s to painful.

Ain't that the truth.
