  9. 568 - Operation Chariot, The Greatest Raid of All (with Nick Mason)

    9 september 2026 · 2 uur 45 min

    Afspelen
    Operation Chariot is frankly the most unhinged and daring military operation I have ever read about. In World War II, the Brits were so worried about the Nazi's super battleship Tirpitz, they decided to take out the St Nazaire dock in occupied France. To do this they sent hundreds of commandos on a disguised ship to infiltrate the port. Also, the ship was a giant bomb... Five Victoria Crosses later, no wonder this is referred to as "The Greatest Raid of All." Lees meer
