WWII's Most Daring Raids

Secret Weapon Sabotage (1x6)


: 23, 2016

February 17, 1943. Six Norwegian agents parachute into occupied Norway. Their objective is the Norsk Hydro Plant, where the Germans are stockpiling a chemical needed for nuclear weapons research. If anything goes wrong, the men are on their own, but it’s absolutely vital the Nazi’s nuclear program is stopped. Despite being lightly armed and few in number, they must infiltrate the plant, locate the heavy water cells, and destroy them. If they want to get back to Britain, they’ll have to evade capture and make their way overland to Sweden, avoiding German patrols and overcoming the challenges of the brutal Norwegian winter.
