SAS Daggers Drawn: In For the Kill: the Mavericks Who Made the SAS

Summer 1944: the SAS were charged with the most crucial D-Day missions, taking on the might of the Nazi Reich deep behind enemy lines. Facing Hitler’s fearsome Panzer divisions with little more than raw courage and their nimble Willys jeeps , it would take maverick thinking and unconventional warfare to survive and overcome. Hunted at every turn, Blair ‘Paddy’ Mayne’s SAS would face a bitter and bloody struggle to topple the enemy.
