In this episode of Never Mind the Dambusters,   we have an incredible conversation with Marc Stevens as he shares the extraordinary story of his father, the man he knew as Squadron Leader Peter Stevens, MC. 

It was only some years after his father's death that Marc discovered his true identity, and the tragic story behind the events  he uncovered. 

We explore Peter’s remarkable journey from German school boy to RAF Bomber Command pilot, his wartime experiences—including being shot down, captured, and making daring escapes—and the impact of these events on his life and legacy. Marc also reflects on how his father’s past shaped their family, culminating in a discussion about his book, which chronicles Peter’s incredible story.
