This design is based on Lancaster “AJ-G” (serial number ED932) flown by Wing Commander Guy Gibson VC, DSO & Bar, DFC & Bar when he lead Operation Chastise (also known as the “Dambusters Raid”) at the age of 24. Operation Chastise was an attack on German dams carried out on the night of 16/17 May 1943 by 617 Squadron RAF Bomber Command, using special "bouncing bombs".  The Möhne and Edersee dams were breached, however, 53 of the 133 aircrew who took part were killed, 3 captured, with 8 of the 19 Lancasters that took part were destroyed.  Of the survivors, 34 were decorated at Buckingham Palace on 22 June, with Gibson awarded the Victoria Cross.

 Right Sleeve Design: White Lancaster with RAF 617 Sqn motto: "Après moi, le déluge" (after me, the flood). 

✈ Left Sleeve Design: Aircraft Serial Number. During training for Operation Chastise, the aircraft involved had the suffix /G shown after the serial. This denoted the aircraft as “secret” and required guarding 24 hours a day. On the night of the mission, the /G was painted over which is why our t-shirts only show the aircraft serial number.

Comfortable nice material
