'MAJESTIC STORYTELLING ... A TOUR DE FORCE' John Templeton Smith October 1940: a raiding party of elite soldiers arrives in the middle of Nazi-occupied France on a deadly mission. But these are not troops from Britain's new commando units. They are modern-day Israeli special forces operators armed with sophisticated 21st-century weaponry.
