“No casualties” . . . except two bomber crews and all aboard one of the gliders. Whew! Dedicated and persistent men.
As I recall there is a Rock Hudson movie made about this raid.
Another amazing raid is the “Cockleshell Navy” commando raid of six kayaks and 12 men that attacked shipping in the port of Bordeaux. Brave, brave men.
