This is a a song by Sabaton called Night Witches. It is metal so if thats not your thing then sorry for wasting you time. I do find it interesting that it is a bout the 588th Night Bomber Regiment, a unit of Russian night attack specialists. I hope you find it interesting.

Scott--not sure if it's everyone's cup of tea, but Sabaton is awesome, and bases a lot of their songs on events like the Night Witches.

For instance, "No Bullets Fly" is about Franz Stigler not shooting down Charlie Brown's B-17:

One of my all time favorite bands, and my 11-year old history buff daughter loves them as well.

Cool stuff. Did they fly the Polikarpov PO-2's? Anything else?
