The Dambusters Raid — Operation Chastise — took place on the night of 16–17 May 1943, when 617 Squadron RAF flew modified Avro Lancasters at dangerously low altitude to deliver Barnes Wallis's bouncing bombs against the Möhne, Eder, and Sorpe dams. The Möhne and Eder were breached; 53 of the 133 aircrew did not return. Guernsey's interest is not incidental — the island was under German occupation at the time, and the raid's psychological impact on occupied populations across northwest Europe was considerable.
