Beschreibung

The Special Boat Service (SBS) was a small force during World War II, never more than about three hundred men. But that did not stop it from inflicting great damage on the enemy. In the Mediterranean arena and in the Aegean, which the Germans controlled after the fall of Greece and Crete, this small commando force kept up a constant campaign of harassment, thus pinning down enemy forces and preventing their joining other fronts. John Lodwick took part in the SBS Mediterranean campaign and writes from personal experience with the panache and verve of the squadron itself.

Über den Autor

John Lodwick (1916-1959) was one of the leading novelists of the early twentieth century and a key player in London's surrealist movement. This memoir covers his wartime experiences in the Special Operations Executive (SOE) and the Special Boat Service. He died in a car crash in Spain, alongside his publisher, at the age of just 43.
