This volume examines how Russia, Ukraine & other territories of the former Soviet Union have coped with more unnecessary death than any other countries on Earth during the 20th century.

The way in which Russians coped with loss & bereavement is a central issue in this volume.

The loss of British bombers over Occupied Europe began to reach alarming levels in 1941. Could it be that the Germans were using a sophisticated form of radar to direct their night fighters & anti-aircraft guns at the British bombers? British aerial reconnaissance discovered what seemed to be a rotating radar tower on a clifftop at Bruneval, near Le Havre. The truth must be revealed. The decision was taken to launch a daring raid on the Bruneval site to try & capture the technology for further examination. The planned airborne assault would be extremely risky. The parachute regiment had only been formed a year before on Churchill`s insistence. This night raid would test the men to the extreme limits of their abilities. Night Raid tells the gripping tale of this mission from the planning stages, to the failed rehearsals when the odds seemed stacked against them, to the night of the raid itself, & the scientific secrets that were discovered thanks to the paras` precious cargo
- the German radar. Its capture was of immense importance in the next stages of the war & the mission itself marked the birth of the legend of the ` Red Devils`.
