Getting Started

My boss and friend, Professor Heather Hughes, Head of the Digital Archive is leaving the university. With all our wonderful volunteers, Alex, Robin, and I will do our best to follow Heather's example and continue to build the IBCC Digital Archive.

We're completing the process of moving the archive to new servers and we're currently getting some redirect issues. For now, please use the web address rather than links to the archive from other pages. ibccdigitalarchive.omeka.net

His collection in the @ibccdigitalarchive.bsky.social contains correspondence, photographs and documents. ibccdigitalarchive.omeka.net/collections/...

🗓️ 💥 #OnThisDay in 1943, the Dambusters Raid was launched, breaching German dams. But as @jamesjhistory.bsky.social rages, there's more to Bomber Command than just Dambusters and Dresden. Other squadrons are available too! ✈️ 🌊 Listen now: pod.fo/e/228102 #onthisday #otd #WWII

This article does a pretty good job of explaining what the IBCC is all about. The archive aims to tell the story of those caught up in the bombing war, in the air, on the ground and on both sides of the conflict.
