Life in the Legendary Pathfinders as a Lancaster Bomb Aimer

101-year-old Jack Dark reflects on life in WW2 as part of the RAF’s elite Pathfinder Force.

Just a lad at 18, Jack was a Bomb Aimer and Navigator in the Lancaster Bomber. The Pathfinders went in first to find and mark the targets. Their accuracy is said to have changed the course of the Second World War.

Jack is one of a few surviving Pathfinders and is in demand by film and documentary-makers for his valuable memories of those daring, dangerous, nighttime missions.
