ROYAL AIR FORCE BOMBER COMMAND, 1942-1945. - Still from film taken by the RAF Film Production Unit, showing an Avro Lancaster of No. 617 Squadron RAF flying over the target during a daylight raid on the railway viaduct at Schildesche, Bielefeld, Germany. Smoke can be seen rising from a near miss. 18 aircraft of the Squadron bombed the viaduct with 12,000-lb deep-penetration 'Tallboy' bombs and several direct hits were claimed, but subsequent photographic-reconnaissance evidence showed the viaduct to be still intact. , Royal Air Force, Royal Air Force Film Production Unit, Royal Air Force, Roya
