Description
10 Squadron: A History of Bomber Command's Most Prolific Unit
Formed in 1915 as an artillery observation unit, 10 Squadron underwent several transformations before becoming one of the RAF's most prominent bomber squadrons during World War II. The squadron's operational history spans from its early days at Farnborough to its eventual disbandment and reformation.
The squadron played a significant role in the war effort, with crews undertaking over 600 operations and losing 156 aircraft. Today, 10 Squadron remains operational, flying the Airbus Voyager in the transport/tanker role.
