75 years ago today, RAF Lancasters of IX and 617 Squadrons finally sunk the Tirpitz in ‘Operation Catechism’. Over 20 air and naval operations between 1940 and 1944 had failed to sink the formidable ship – the largest battleship ever produced by a European Navy. Following several hits from the bombers, the Tirpitz capsized with the loss of 1,204 lives. A British, Norwegian, and German Service was held in Norway today to commemorate the fallen. #Remembrance | Royal Air Force
