With Hitler's army rampaging across Europe, Winston Churchill
ordered the creation of a special fighting force - the Commandos.
These valiant men were volunteers drawn from the ranks of the
British Army, formed into a Special Service Brigade and put through
a rigorous but highly effective training programme. Over the course
of World War II they would see action in every major theatre of
operation and are credited with numerous feats of gallantry during
the D-Day landings. Although many units were disbanded after the
war, the Royal Marine Commandos have maintained the standards of
this elite fighting formation to the present day. Angus Konstam
explores the history of the Commandos during their formative years,
providing detailed descriptions of their training, weapons and
equipment. Battle reports are accompanied by specially commissioned
Osprey artwork and historical photographs, offering readers an
in-depth analysis of some of the most famous fighting units in the
British Army's history.
