Re: What's the future of WW2 historical writing?

I apologise for appearing to correct you. If I'd intended that then I would have mentioned that a Whitley would also have been anachronistic.

The date of the Lancaster's introduction dismissed premonition as a possible rationale, which thought actually occurred to me also in the cinema. But premonition required a Whitley, Blenheim, Battle or Wellington, all of which would have been seen by the two protagonists before they died. But not a Lancaster.
