However, it was a Halifax which became the first RAF 'heavy' to drop bombs on Germany when No 35 Sqn raided Hamburg on the night of 12\/13 March 1941. Between 1941-45, the Halifax completed some 75,532 sorties [compared with the Lancaster's 156,000] with Bomber Command alone, not to mention its sterling work as both a glider tug and paratroop carrier with the Airborne Forces, maritime patrol mount with Coastal Command and covert intruder with the SOE.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jon Lake\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1855328925\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781855328921\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Osprey Publishing (UK)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/15\/1999\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 116\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.77lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.84h x 7.20w x 0.37d","brand":"Jon Lake","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48450032042239,"sku":"9781855328921","price":26.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_a21d9a04-8515-4602-9457-91a96a92af79.jpg?v=1777265934","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/halifax-squadrons-of-world-war-jon-lake-9781855328921","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
