Operation Aquatint Part 2 - Early Raiding Forces

Summary We are delighted to have best selling author Damien Lewis join us to talk about the early raiding forces that were created in the wake of Churchill's plea to his chiefs of staff: "Prepare hunter troops for a butcher-and-bolt reign of terror." Units such as the Commandos, the LRDG and SAS are now world famous but it was the earlier Small Scale Raiding Force that went to Normandy via MTB / Goatley boat in September 1942 to a stretch of sand that 2 years later became better known as Omaha Beach. Also joining us to elaborate on the raid will be Duncan Hollands. Amazingly Duncan's Great Uncle was on the MTB during the raid.
