Summary of Damien Lewis's Churchill's Secret Warriors - E-book - ePub

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 The two men were disguised as goatherds, and they were sent to check out the airbase. They didn't take into account the inate stubbornness of the animals, especially when they were hungry. The guard grew suspicious when the two men didn't understand him. #2 Lassen and his men were dropped off at the start of the operation by a British warship, and they took out some Schnellbombers, German planes used for anti-submarine and anti-ship patrols. #3 The codewords were made up from the first few letters of the men's name and rank.
There were five raiders on the Kastelli mission: Georgios included. They planned to cut the perimeter wire, and then blow up the airbase. #4 The plan was to attack the airbase and blow it up, but if any of them were spotted, they would blow it all up and get moving. They all knew the emergency rendezvous point: meat.
