Nineteen Thirty Seven

by Bicpen

 
P.13/36 was a required design
a medium bomber twin engine whine
P.13/36 changed its face now B.12/36
a heavy bomber four engine whine
Serial No. 308 carried Block Busters
Incendiaries Tallboys Grand Slam Earthquakes
Barne Wallis was their creator of mind
Its most famous sorties were Operation Chastise
a splendid job bringing Squadron 617 alive
all thanks to Rolls Royce and the proven choice
Avro delivered anti-submarine photo reconnaissance
aerial mapping and aerial refuelling at a snapshot
In 1941 L7257’s test pilot H.A. “Sam” Brown
brought four merlin engines singing around
 
It was Type 683 Manchester III
"... The Lancaster Bomber ..."
to you and to me
