A Lancaster bomber flies over Derwent dam in England's Peak District, to mark the 65th anniversary of the WWII Dambusters' raid, Friday. Specially developed "bouncing bombs" were used in Operation Chastise, an attack on German dams on May 17, 1943. The attack was carried out by Britain's Royal Air Force No. 617 Squadron, who subsequently became known as the Dambusters.
