The gripping untold story of the Secret Hunters, deep-cover British special forces who pursued Nazi fugitives from justice after World War II (Daily Mail).
In the late summer of 1944, eighty British Special Air Service (SAS) soldiers undertook a covert commando raid, parachuting behind enemy lines into the Vosges Mountains in occupied France to sabotage Nazi-held roads, railways, and ammo dumps, and assassinate high-ranking German officers, undermining the final stand of Hitlers Third Reich. Despite their successes, more than half the men were captured, tortured, and executed.Although the SAS was officially dissolved when the war ended, a top-secret black ops unit was formed, under Churchills personal command, to hunt down the SS commanders who had murdered their special forces comrades, as well as war criminals from concentration camps who had eluded the Nuremberg trials. Under the cover of full deniability, The Secret Hunters waged a covert war of justice and retributionuncovering the full horror of Hitlers regime as well as dark secrets of Stalins Russia and the growing threat of what would become the Cold War.
Finally revealing the fascinating details of the secret postwar mission that became a central part of the SASs founding legend, Damien Lewis delves into some of the darkest days of the regiments history to tell a story of tragedy, valor and revenge . . . [a] remarkable story (War History Online).
