Hi Graham.
The preamble to the Warsaw drops are found in many publications that is freely available.
The range of 1800 miles in terrible weather,11 hrs flight,10 of them over enemy country with no fighter escort and then descending to 300 ft
was considered suicidal by the High Brass.
The initiation to do those raids was done by Churchill himself and it was a request and specified NOT an order.
There were some Halifax sqn as well and the Poles had a flight that did the last raids.
S Africa and Poland has had an annual commemeration service for more than 60 years on the 6th of Sept.
If you are intersted I suggest you get that book
