You will note that in the CBC story, and in an earlier CBC story, the reporter said 882 took part in the DAmbusters raid.
unfortunately not true. That was 43, and 882 arrived in England in early 45.
also 12 missions (the 12th however was turned back over Europe due to weather, bombs dropped in the Channel)
