Did anyone see 'Jeremy Clarkson's Greatest Raid Of All Time', the other week, great to reflect on the courage of all the soldiers during that era.

Ludicrous idea but just shows what morale and spirit can do.

Have to say Clarkson got it right it was one of our biggest raids in the war and we should rememeber our greatest heroes.

Yeah, rightly so they should be remembered for their extreme yet slightly nutteresque (don't think thats a word lol) courage.

It's a shame that the only memorial erected in their memory is a small stone in falmouth, hopefully after this documentary they will have a memorial built that is fitting of what they done.
