We, as many other researchers, regard Bill Chorley's work for listing the Bomber Command losses as a "Must Have". The complete set consists of 9 volumes covering various periods / units of WW2.
The tremendous benefit of purchasing these volumes is that he is continuing to research and additions to the various volumes are constantly updated. These are available free of charge via a web site as listed beneath each volume reviewed here. Researchers are encouraged to submit revisions to this website together with the source in order to verify.

Bill Chorley's work? Simply the best reference source available for Bomber Command Losses.
Aircrew Remembered quote his work on all of our Bomber Command losses - we place credits to him and his work on every page listed on our website and we encourage researchers to purchase his great reference books rather than use other less reputable sites that use his work with no regard to his great work and research.
Many relatives who have contacted us never knew what happened in the final hours of a crew - these publications, together with our further research does bring them some form of closure. Bill Chorley has not only completed the most referred to research books in the market today - he is the master and we are pleased to announce that he supports the work we are doing and we are happy to supply him with our updated information as and when.
