The raid on the secret rocket research establishment at Peenem nde on the Baltic coast in August 1943 has gone down in history as one of the most successful and remarkable of the war. But it came at a terrible cost. The site was virtually obliterated, and the Germans forced to move rocket production and development elsewhere.
After the war, the bodies of many of those who were killed were recovered by the Missing Research and Enquiry Service (MRES) and buried in Commonwealth war graves. More than 40 bombers and 215 RAF aircrew failed to return. But not all.
A series of mishaps and miscommunication led the MRES to search in the wrong place. Funds to continue the search dried up. And with the site falling into Russian hands, and access to British and US search parties severely restricted, the search ultimately had to be called off, and the remaining men commemorated on the Runnymede
