    Lots of info on the raid as a whole, but looking specifically at the background and then execution of one of the objectives. The then Radio Direction Finding, what the Brits had, what the Germans had, the importance to the outcome of the war. About a technical specialist / scientist that went on the raid whose objective was to get to a Germanicon radar installation and learn what he could and if possible bring equipment back.
    In novel form but interesting nonetheless. I read it many years ago but will again in the next week or so. A good read for blokes like us on here that are interested in its subject matter.
