Goodtime Charlie

Set in and around a Bomber Command Airbase on the east coast of England in 1943/4 and more often than not in the Lancaster itself, the members of C For Charlie, a seven-man bomber aircrew, prepare for a maximum-effort raid deep over the heart of Nazi Germany's industrial complex. The expectation is that this will be another long, hard and deadly yet hopefully decisive raid, as Bomber Command strives for air superiority during the build-up to the rumoured and impending invasion of occupied France, eventually to be known as Operation Overlord and later, D-Day. The stakes are therefore already extremely high, so when Barton, the young, overprotective and often unpredictable mid-upper gunner on this crew of unsung heroes learns that the others want him out, chaos ensues as his inner demons are laid bare for all to see.
