Best Answer

617 Squadron, the 'Dam Busters', is still an operational RAF squadron and, so, has had a great many commanding officers. Of the wartime COs, probably the most famous were Wing Commander Guy Gibson, VC (who commanded the squadron during the dams' raid), and Wing Commander Leonard Cheshire, VC.
