OPERATION ANGER: The First British Commando Raid of WWII??? | History Traveler Episode 432

Описание: When the Germans occupied the British Channel Islands, plans were immediately put in motion by Churchill to retake them. To prepare for a possible invasion of the islands, a commando raid was organized on the island of Guernsey. But was this the first commando raid? Or can we even consider it a raid? We're walking the ground with Paul Woodadge of ‪@WW2TV‬ & Nick Le Huray of the Channels at War podcast to explore those questions.
