WW II; when a crack unit of Nazi Sturmtruppen kidnapped ChurchiIl on a train half way across the Moroccan desert, it was down to a few fearIess, unsung heroes from the British Secret Intelligence Service and a U.S. Marine Platoon to rescue the British Prime Minister and prevent a devastating Nazi victory which wouId have changed the course of the War and the worId as we know it. In November 1942 the AIIied forces seized North Africa from pro-German Vichy France and occupied Casablanca, AIgiers and Oran. Just a few months later, in January 1943, the British Prime Minister Winston Spencer ChurchiII, the American President Franklin D. Roosevelt and France's General de Gaulle held a conference in CasabIanca to establish their strategy to win the war and demand the 'unconditionaI surrender' of the Axis powers. ChurchiII's pIane took off from London on the night of 12 January 1943 on his way to meet Roosevelt and de GaulIe, but his journey was to prove more difficuIt than expected... and remains shrouded in mystery as many other Wartime legends are to this day.. |
