A series in which major historical events are recounted by well-known eye-witnesses.
The Hon. Christopher M. Woodhouse, D.S.O., recalls an important sabotage operation carried out by a group of British parachutists and Greek guerrillas in German-occupied Greece in the autumn of 1942. This daring operation cut the supply lines of Rommel's Afrika Korps, which ran through the Greek mainland and Crete, at a time when the Germans were being pushed back by the Eighth Army towards Tripolitania.
