This reminds me of Operation Medium, in which the British Battleship HMS Revenge conducted a nighttime naval bombardment by using an air raid as cover. In late 1940 the English noticed a large number of German landing craft in the port of Charbourg. These had been gathered for Operation Sealion, and although the window for the invasion had already passed, they still constituted an uncomfortable concentration of German forces just across the English Channel. As RAF precision bombing was still a work in progress at this point of the war the English needed something a little more accurate than "there's the target city, chuck the bomb out the window and hopefully we hit something important." They had the Revenge available, but it was dubious that the old ww1 era battleship could get close enough to the well defended harbor to accurately hit its targets. So they came up with a plan that would require both timing and good luck: an air raid was to be launched against the city, and while all the Germans were looking upwards the warship would tiptoe in and shoot up the landing forces from practically point blank range. The plan went off without a hitch, and by the time the Germans realized what was happening and returned fire with shore defense batteries, the Revenge had successfully knocked out a large number of invasion craft and retreated back into the darkness of night without a scratch. Drachinifel has a great video detailing the event, and if you're interested I would highly recommend you check it out. m.kzbin.info/www/bejne/hH64l4xpbdWIo68

My favourite story of this is ( of many ) that of Tom Durrant, he was one of the small motor launches when they were engaged by a much much larger German Destroyer, I’ll put the citation here “For great gallantry, skill and devotion to duty when in charge of a Lewis gun in HM Motor Launch 306 in the St Nazaire raid on 28 March 1942. Motor Launch 306 came under heavy fire while proceeding up the River Loire towards the port. Sergeant Durrant, in his position abaft the bridge, where he had no cover or protection, engaged enemy gun positions and searchlights ashore. During this engagement he was severely wounded in the arm but refused to leave his gun. The Motor Launch subsequently went down the river and was attacked by a German destroyer at 50 to 60 yards range, and often closer. In this action Sergeant Durrant continued to fire at the destroyer's bridge with the greatest of coolness and with complete disregard of the enemy's fire. The Motor Launch was illuminated by the enemy searchlight, and Sergeant Durrant drew on himself the individual attention of the enemy guns, and was again wounded in many places. Despite these further wounds he stayed in his exposed position, still firing his gun, although after a time only able to support himself by holding on to the gun mounting. After a running fight, the Commander of the German destroyer called on the Motor Launch to surrender. Sergeant Durrant's answer was a further burst of fire at the destroyer's bridge. Although now very weak, he went on firing, using drums of ammunition as fast as they could be replaced. A renewed attack by the enemy vessel eventually silenced the fire of the Motor Launch, but Sergeant Durrant refused to give up until the destroyer came alongside, grappled the Motor Launch and took prisoner those who remained alive. Sergeant Durrant's gallant fight was commended by the German officers on boarding the Motor Launch. This very gallant non-commissioned officer later died of the many wounds received in action” By commended, the German officers actually spoke with some British officers who were taken prisoner, and said that he should get a VC. What a class act

There were 50 Destroyers supplied from the US navy's reserve.

I’ve never been more entertained by any history channel like yours and I’m subscribed to multiple historical channels yarnhub is one of not the best history channel out there

My Grandfather William Watt was there in a MTB and survived the war.

Thanks Yarnhub, really enjoy guessing your subject of the story. Operation Chariot was in many ways a fine job despite the casualties.

"Here we are men. Just 4 minutes late" There is nothing more british than this.

DUDE CAN WE APPRECIATE THE EFFORT MADE FOR A 5 MINUTE VIDEO

[@charlessapp1835]

We are only 4 minuets late. So funny! A sign of a great leader. The ability to be calm and make a joke to calm the men.

Another great story and a video that does it justice. Really liked the overhead and bow views / rendering of the Campbelltown in this one. Amazing work once again!

[@englishimperialist9279]

Turns out one of my great unles was involved in this raid

[@SGTmapleleaf]

Moving to Navy Stories! New area for Yarnhub to fill in with high quality animations and knowledge! Sorry I wasn’t early had to sleep.

I like how he narrate the story I like it I like your voice it is like you're a natural born narrator 😄

[@candela.1t394]

The ray tracing on the ship visually looks so incredible! I don't know wheather this is the first historical naval combat scene Yarnhub has showed us but this is personally in my top favourites from Yarnhub. (A small request too I would love to see if you guys could once again make historical videos related to science and maths like the ones you people made about Alan Turing and Nikola Tesla it really fascinates me with all their great legacy and you guys can pull these types of thing off with perfection 🤠)

1:25 I see what you did there

[@VeganerHippie]

Brought me back to when i played Medal of Honor where the beginning mission is this raid.

[@unsaidartist1505]

Who knew you were so good at animating ships, or water for that fact?

[@BunnyWitch17]

@Yarnhub That scene crossover at the end to real life footage is a really nice touch! Great video!
