INTRODUCTION
In WWII the neutral Grand-Duchy of
Luxembourg was occupied and oppressed by the Nazi Germany.
For 4 long years (1940-1944) the
Luxembourgers only visual hope for freedom was the Allied Air Forces, and
mainly, during the first years of the occupation,
The Royal Air Forces.
The R.A.F. bombers, after dropping
their load over Germany, returned to Britain passing over Luxembourg.
During those years over 150 planes
crashed on the small territory of Luxembourg. Mainly R.A.F. planes !
Many crew members was rescued by
luxembourgish civilians at the risk of there lifes. (Deportation; Death
Camps; Firing Squads; etc.)
This is the documentary about one
of those bombers.
