Description: |
When Canadian and British troops made their attack against Dieppe harbour in 1942, they were supported by the largest array of RAF aircraft ever seen in World War II up to that time. This is a blow-by-blow account of the day on which the RAF fought one of its greatest air battles. |
Synopsis: |
When Canadian troops and British Commandos made their now famous "reconnaissance in force" against the harbor town of Dieppe in August of 1942, they were supported and protected by the largest array of Royal Air Force aircraft -- over 3000 aircraft took part -- ever seen in WWII until that time. |
