DON'T FORGET TO LIKE AND SUBSCRIBE! -------------------------------------------------------------------

Marshal of the Royal Air Force Sir Arthur ‘Bomber’ Harris 1st Baronet, GCB OBE AFC speaks candidly about his wartime role in this month’s RAF CAPS historic leadership-themed interview filmed in 1977.

Sir Arthur Harris has been the subject of much debate since the end of World War II, dividing opinion like few others in British military history. He is seen in some quarters as a hero in the struggle against an evil foe, and yet is considered a criminal by others.

In this rare interview, conducted by Group Captain (later Air Vice-Marshal) Tony Mason CB CBE DL at the RAF Staff College, Bracknell, Sir Arthur Harris gives his, often frank, views on the prosecution of the Air War against Germany and his experiences with the personalities of that era.

This historically significant interview provides a unique insight into one of the most debated periods of British military history and will appeal to historians and the layman alike.

Viewers may find some of the comments in the video controversial; however, in deference to the historic record that the interview presents the comments have not been edited and viewers are asked to judge the interview within the context of the period.
