English Sergeant Charles Brennan was Flight Engineer Lancaster ED925 AJ-M Dambuster

Taking part in The Dams Raid on the Mohne dam ED925 was hit in the inner wing and inner port fuel tank which caught fire. The aircraft was hit by light Flak of the 3./leichte Flak-Abteilung 846. The plane was further damaged by the bomb which flew over the dam and exploded. The port wing came off and the plane crashed.#

1. 
   Crew:-
   Pilot : Flight Lieutenant John Vere Hopgood DFC and Bar RAFVR 61281 (NCO:1182427 : Commission Gazetted Friday 21 March, 1941) [Killed]
   Flight Engineer : Sergeant Charles Brennan RAFVR 942037 [Killed]
   Observer : Pilot Officer John William Fraser RCAF J/17696 [PoW]
   Navigator : Flying Officer Kenneth Earnshaw RCAF J/10891 [Killed]
   Wireless Operator / Air Gunner : Sergeant John William Minchin RAFVR 1181097 [Fatal Injury]
   Front Gunner : Flying Officer George Henry Ford Goodwin Gregory DFM RAFVR 141285 (NCO:755905 : Commission Gazetted Tuesday 06 April, 1943) [Killed]
   Rear Gunner : Pilot Officer Anthony Fisher Burcher DFM RAAF Aus/403182 [PoW]
   Associated Sergeant Ronald Buckland Minchin RAFVR 1312801 [Killed]
   Incredibly P/O Burcher and Flt/Sgt Fraser survived the crash and became POWs.
2. After the bombing run of Gibson's AJ-G failed to breach the dam, the Lancaster ED925 AJ-M piloted by John Hopgood was sent in to make the second run. Having sustained flak damage already, the aircraft was again hit by flak on its bombing run, igniting both port engines just before the Upkeep mine was released. The bomb bounced but overshot the dam, exploding as it landed on the power station below. Mortally wounded, the Lancaster reeled away from the scene allowing time for two of the crew to take to their parachutes before the port wing failed and the aircraft crashed into a field. Five of the brave crew were killed in the action, although how many were already wounded or killed prior to the aircraft coming down is not known. Bomb Aimer Flight Sergeant James W Fraser and Rear Gunner Pilot Officer Anthony Fisher Burcher managed to escape the doomed aircraft and parachuted into captivity. The dam remained completely intact after this failed attack, while another Lancaster and valuable Upkeep mine had gone.
