As an historian for over 50 years, THIS is about THE FINEST written, presented/narratored, and produced WWII docs I've ever seen. Exactly as if ur right there with these extraordinarily brave and courageous men. Now I need to research WHO GAVE the go-ahead on the Tobruk raid.

One of the problems with special forces hero worship is that positive reinforcement tends to exclude the failures, such as Operation Agreement above. For example, in a debacle on a similar scale, the Brandenburgers lost virtually their entire Parachute Battalion trying to seize Romanian airfields in August 1944, but you never hear about that.

Please back off on the music track. It’s a great story, but when the music is overdone it distracts and takes away from it. The music’s intensity is unnecessary for the story, is a distraction, and it makes it harder to understand the narration.

War is war. Often things happen that you'd say, " I would never do succha thing ! " But , in the heat of the moment, you find yourself doing things that you'd never dreamed yourself possible of, on any other day. May Creator grant us enough time to forgive ourselves for the things that we regret, the things we are not proud of, the things, if given the chance - we would do differently. Forgiving yourself is the first step to achieving forgiveness.

A documentary that highlights the fact that a failed mission small or big does not mean that the men/women assigned to were failures. On the contrary, they were the men/women who risked their lives notwithstanding knowing that all the odds were against them in those missions! This is called blind courage and bravery!

Operation Agreement, of which the SIG were part, was a total disaster, nothing went to plan. Instead of "Undermining the Axis war effort", the goal of the plan, it cost 1,575 Casualties, 3 Warships and 14 smaller boats sunk. The Germans and Italians lost just 15 men!

The Jews have always been the the true Palestinians! Palestine is the name Rome gave to ISRAEL in 83AD when they invaded Israel. The Arabs living there were always just Arabs. How do we know this? All of the archaeological digs and expeditions have never turned up a indigenous Palestinian language on any pottery, scrolls, or pieces of cloth. It’s all been Hebrew. You have been lied to by Yasser Arafat! If you have access to the Internet, which you obviously do to be able to make your stupid comments, I would suggest you go and actually do some historical research. It might be very eye-opening for you to find out you have been lied to since birth!
