WWII's Most Daring Raids

Churchill Strikes Back (1x3)

: 02, 2016

December 1941: under cover of a fierce naval bombardment, a taskforce of elite British commandos sail towards the Norwegian town of South Vaagso. Their objectives are the town’s factories: a vital part of the German war machine. The commandos are desperate to avenge Dunkirk and strike a blow against Hitler’s ‘Fortress Europe’. They are expecting fierce resistance. They land under a smoke screen, eliminate German resistance, and block counterattacks long enough to allow the factories and other targets to be destroyed. Even with reinforcements from other units, the commandos are over-stretched as they execute ambitious orders to get in, do the job and retreat before the Nazi’s know what’s hit them.
