OperatiOn Jubilee

The R aid on dieppe,FRance, 19 a ugusT 1942Te Dieppe raid has gone down in history as a tragic military blunder. Te lack o proper intelligence on the Germandeences and ineective preparatory bombing and bombard-ment meant the troops came ashore against withering re.Despite this the Dieppe raid did have some successes includ-ing some epic struggles against extreme odds, which led tosome tremendous acts o heroism and bravery.

Te Dieppe raid, code named Operation Jubilee, waslaunched on 19 August ater several delays and a cancellation.It was conceived as part o on going raids o dierent sizes(and was the largest such) along the French coast. Tese raidsaimed to test and reconnoitre the German coastal deences.

Te raid was supported by eight destroyers o the Royal Navy and the ghters and bombers o the RAF.

Most o the troops taking part in the raid were Canadian.Te Royal Hamilton Light Inantry, Essex Scottish,Fusiliers Mont-Royal, Royal Regiment o Canada, SouthSaskatchewan, Cameron Highlanders o Canada regimentsand the 14th Canadian Army ank (Calgary) Regimentall took part in the raid. Also involved were Nos. 3 and4 Commando o the British Army, the Royal Marine A Commando, 18 inter-allied French Commandos and 50 USRangers. Te total orce was just under 5000 strong.

Te raid opened with a short bombardment rom the 4.5”guns o the Royal Navy Destroyers. It was hoped that by

not engaging in a prolonged bombardment and bombing o Dieppe the element o surprise would be retained. Te RAF

was to supply air cover and gain air superiority over Dieppe.Both these assumptions were to prove woeully inadequate.

Te destroyers became involved in a short exchange with a German convoy, which alerted the Germans on shore some-thing was a oot, and the bombardment did little in the way

o damage to the German positions. On top o this, the RAFghters did not have enough uel to stay above Dieppe orany length o time. Tereore both surprise and air cover

were limited.

The a ssaulTs

Te raid wasn’t just an attack on the town o Dieppe. It alsoincluded several landings on the anks. Te aims o the raid

were to seize and hold the port or a short period, to gatherintelligence rom prisoners and captured materials, and totest the German reaction. Te Allies also wanted to destroy German coastal deences, port structures, and all strategic

buildings. Flank attacks were to seize the headlands. o this was added an attack on a German HQ and an aireld urtherinland.

Blue Beach

Te Royal Regiment o Canada landed at Blue Beach nearPuys, but delays meant advantages o surprise and darkness

were lost by the time they landed. Sixty German deenders were able to hold the Canadians on the beach. Tey were joined by several platoons rom the Black Watch o Canada,but they weren’t able to ree themselves rom the beach. TeCanadians lost 225 men killed and 264 surrendered on this

beach, with only 33 men evacuated back to England.



gReen Beach

On the other side o Dieppe at Pourville (Green Beach)the South Saskatchewan Regiment and the Queen’s OwnCameron Highlanders o Canada landed with ew losses.Te South Saskatchewans advanced on Dieppe, but they

were stopped short o their objective by German deenders,as were Camerons. Both regiments were orced to withdraw and suering casualties in the process. Landing crat crews

managed to evacuate 341 men to the otilla, leaving the restto surrender as the Germans closed in on the beach. 141men were killed. Te South Saskatchewan Regiment’s com-mander, Lieutenant Colonel Charles Cecil Ingersoll Merritt,

was awarded the Victoria Cross or his gallantry during thebattle, despite being captured along with many o his men.

Part o the purpose in landing in Green Beach was togather intelligence on the German radar station on thecli-top just to the east o the town o Pourville. RAF FlightSergeant Jack Nissenthall, a radar specialist who had alsocompleted Commando training, was attached to the SouthSaskatchewans and assigned to investigate. Strong deence

prevented Nissenthall and his Saskatchewan bodyguardsrom entering the radar station, but he was able to crawl upto the rear o the station under re and cut the telephone

wires leading to it. Tis orced the German crew inside touse radio to talk to their commanders, allowing the trans-missions to be intercepted by listening posts on the southcoast o England. Te Allies learnt a great deal about theGerman radar arrays along the channel coast because o this.Nissenthall escaped back to England.

dieppe

Dieppe itsel was attacked rom three points. Te Essex

Scottish Regiment landing at the eastern Red Beach, TeRoyal Hamilton Light Inantry at the western White Beachand 14th Canadian Army ank Regiment (Calgary Regiment)in the centre. Te rst units o the Royal HamiltonLight Inantry and Essex Scottish stormed ashore around0530 hours, 10 to 15 minutes ater the bombardment hadceased, more than enough time or the deenders to recover.

As soon as the Hamilton Light Inantry had landed they came under intense re rom the German deenders. Te pre-liminary bombardment rom the destroyers had done littleto silence the Germans. Te Hamiltons had to withstandthe withering re laid down by the Germans or 15 minutes

beore the rst wave o Churchills arrived. Te Hamiltonsbecame pinned down on the beach and were unable to makeprogress until the landing o reinorcements urther downthe beach allowed them a respite.

Communications were ragmentary throughout the raid andthe reserves were committed to the Dieppe beach at around0700 hours based on little understanding o the unolding events. 584 men o Les Fusiliers Mont-Royal took re during their landing on the beach. Te other part o the reservecomprised 369 men o Royal Marine A Commando. Tey

were ordered to White Beach to support i possible. Te rsto their crat landed under withering machine gun re. Teircommander, Lieutenant Colonel Joseph ‘iger’ Phillips, sig-nalled the order to his landing crat to withdraw, but he washit and killed in the process. However, all but one saw thesignal and withdrew, though several crat were already hit.Te Commandos that landed could not advanced more thana ew yards once ashore.

At 0720 hours the Hamiltons stormed the ortied casino, with the aid o engineers and small parties o the just landedFusiliers Mont-Royal, taking out the German guns and posi-tions inside. Several parties then started making their way into the town.

O the 30 tanks landed in the rst wave, only 15 managed to

make it o the beach and cross the anti-tank ditch and theseawall onto the promenade between the seawall and the rstrow o town buildings. Te beach at Dieppe was made upo chert , a type o smooth rounded shingle that proved very difcult going or the Churchill tanks. Te tanks would slidearound or the chert would become lodged in between road

wheels and tracks immobilising them or throwing tracks.Tey came under re rom pillboxes and the guns o anking cli-top positions, and they were brought to a complete stopby anti-tank walls blocking the street exits rom the prom-enade. Te engineers were unable to clear these obstaclesbecause o heavy re.

Fighting continued on the promenade or several hours, but with many troops pinned down on the beach and no urtherprogress made into the town, the order to withdraw wasissued at 1050 hours, less that six hours ater the rst troopshad landed. Some Churchill tanks were able to return to thebeach to cover the withdrawal.

Te landing crat returned to the beaches under smoke andRAF ghter cover. Evacuation took place in conusion withghting still on going. By 1220 hours, landing crat couldno longer make the beaches. Te destroyer HMS Calpemade a last evacuation attempt at 1248 hours beore the eetreturned to England. Te Dieppe raid was over. 3,367 men,

including 2,752 Canadians remained on the beaches, deador as prisoners.



Canadian soldiers established an outstanding record in theFirst World War where the Canadian Corps was used asan elite assault unit. When the Second World War began,thousands volunteered or a new Canadian Corps.

By the middle o 1942, three Canadian inantry divisions,a Canadian armoured division, and a Canadian army tank brigade were all training in Britain. Te 2nd CanadianInantry Division conducted the one-day raid on the porto Dieppe in August 1942, suering heavy losses beorereturning to training.

Canadian forces use all of the British special rules on pages 171

Te Oke fame-thrower can only be red i no other weapons have red during the turn. It can only be red once during the game.

However, it does not suer penalties o dangerous empty uel tanks like other fame-thrower vehicles, as the actual amount o uel carried was small. Churchill I Oke tanks are not eected by the Fuel anks special rule (see page 84 o the rulebook).

chuRchill i oke Flame-Tank

Te Oke was a Churchill I with a ame-throwerreplacing its hull mounted 3” inch close supportgun. It got its name rom its designer, Major

J.M. Oke.

Te design was basically a Churchill tank tted with Ronson ame-throwing equipment. A tank containing the ame uel was tted at the rear, witha pipe rom it leading along and through the let-handtrack guard to the inside ront o it. Te ame-thrower wasoperated by the hull machine-gunner.

Te Churchill Oke was the rst Churchill to be tted with ame equipment. Te range o the Oke ame-thrower was40 to 50 metres.

Tree Churchill I’s that were equipped with the Oke ame-thrower system at Dieppe. All three were crewed by 8 roop, BSquadron, 14th Army ank Regiment (Te Calgary Regiment), and were carried on LC-3 (ank Landing Crat) No 159.Te three Churchill I Oke tanks were:

ChurChill i Oke Flame-tank

BULL was the roop Commander’s tank and was launched prematurely and ‘drowned’ in ten eet o water approximately 100 metres o shore at the junction o Red and White Beaches.

BOAR made heavy landing rom LC-3 and knocked o the ame-thrower uel tank on the rear, but still managed to crossthe beach and onto the promenade in the area o the casino. It remained mobile throughout the morning, beore being

ordered back to the beach to cover the withdrawal. Once back on the beach BOAR took a hit and was immobilised, butcontinued to act as a pillbox.

BEELE also landed heavily and broke a pin on her right track, remaining immobilized on the shore line at the eastern endo Red Beach. She acted as a pillbox during the battle.

Unortunately none o the Churchill I Oke ame-tanks were able to use their ame guns during the battle.



I your end panels don’t t exactly, still glue them in placeanyway. Ten, once the glue is dry, trim the excess o witha sharp knie.

modelling The chuRchill i okeFirst you start with a BR070 Churchill I/II tank model.

Materials: You will need some plastic card, 1-

1.2mm diameter brass wire, 2mm diameterbrass tubing, a pin-vice with a suitably sizeddrill bits, some superglue and a hobby knie.

All the materials should be availablerom a good hobby/model store.

mOdelling the ChurChill i Oke

sTep 1Clean up the model and trim the hooks rom the hull rear sothe tank can sit at when glued on.

Beore gluing the tracks to the hull drill a hole about 3mmdeep in to the inside ront guard o the let hand track. Tehole should positioned 3mm rom the guard top and 3mmrom the upper hull ront. Once done assemble the Churchillas normal.

sTep 2 While the tank’s glue it drying you can assemble the ameuel tank. Tis is made rom plastic card (or you couldequally carve the shape rom a piece o balsa or a hard lumpo putty such as milliput). I’ve made a template or the sides

and middle.Cut two copies o the sides out rom your plastic card. Teeasiest way is to print the template, cut out the paper versionthen clear tape it to the plastic card and trace around it witha shape knie, leaving a scored outline on the card.

I your plastic card is thin enough (you might like to use theplastic rom a blister pack), you can cut the middle sectionout as one sheet and score the lines where the olds will be.I you using thicker card, cut the panels out individually. Foradded rigidity I added length o square plastic tubing to thecentre.

When you glue the tank to the hull upper rear, glue one lastpanel 4.5mm x 15mm to the back o the tank and t theame uel tank on to it.



sTep 5Cut a short 2 to 3mm length o the brass piping o with a

small hack saw or clippers (i using clippers you will have tole the ends at, so cut it a bit longer). Ten bore it out withyour drill so it will t over the end o the wire.

Ten bend a short length o wire with a 90 degree angle.Te short end should be 5mm and the longer muzzle end10mm.

Ten superglue the short length o pipe to the long end o the wire.

Ten glue the short end into the hole drilled earlier into thetrack inside guard.

Now it is nished and ready or painting.

sTep 3Drill a hole in the let hand side o the ame uel tank. Tis

will be where the ame pipe will t. Tis is roughly in thecentre o the side panel.

ake a length o 1-1.2mm wire about 35mm long and bend it90 degrees at each end, ensuring the gap between each bend is18mm. Te bend or the tank end should be at least 10mm toreach the tank, while the track end has to only be 3mm.

sTep 4Now drill a hole in the let hand track just behind the airintakes. Tis is where the ame pipe disappears into the track guards, runs along the inside and reappears at the ront. I you’ve ame pipe doesn’t t between the two holes just pullthe two ends apart out o their 90 degree angles until they t the holes.

sTep 6I painted mine in Khaki Drab (Russian Uniorm VP924)and highlighted it by adding a little Bu VP976.

Te markings are as they appear on the original. Te greenover yellow box with the 175 is ound on all the Churchills atDieppe (though I have since been inormed it was probably blue over maroon).

Pioneers were initially the battalion’s labourers, but also took on the role o mine-clearing in assaults and similar work.

During the Dieppe raid it was their role to clear obstaclesthat hinder the advance o the tanks and inantry deeperinto the town. For the success o the raid it was vital thatthe pioneers cleared the way or the tanks to get beyond thebeachhead and urther inland.

One o the interesting things about the Dieppe raid was thenumber o smaller operations o to the sides o the main

assault. Tese ‘raids within a raid’ were launched with theaim o preparing the way or the main assaults on the Dieppebeachront by knocking out guns, observation posts andother anking positions.

Te most successul o these side shows was the attack by No.4 Commando on the Varengeville coastal deence battery tothe west o Dieppe.

Te 252 men o the Commando were split into two groups.Group One landed in ront o two gullies that led up tothe battery position through scrubland. Group wo landedabout 1½ miles west o Group One by the mouth o the

Saane River.Group One, commanded by Major Derek Mills-Roberts,consisted o the Group HQ, C roop and 1 section o A roop, plus various support personnel, a total o 88 all ranks.Group wo, commanded by the unit’s ounder, Lord Lovat,had 164 personnel made up o A (less one section), B and Froops, and the orce HQ.

The plan

Teir objective was to destroy the battery near Varengeville tostop it ring on the naval orces and the Canadians engagedin the main assault on Dieppe.

Group One’s task was to penetrate rom the coast and engageand pin the Germans around the battery positions withcovering re while Group wo moved inland to out ank theGerman positions. Once in position they were to wait or a

ight o Hurricanes to make a strang run on the battery atZ + 90 minutes (90 minutes ater their scheduled landing

time) and then assault the battery and deended positions.Once the battery was knocked out the Commando was toretire to the beach and withdraw.

gRoup one’s l anding on Beach one

At 0430 hours No. 4 Commando hit the beach. GroupOne made straight or the gullies in ront o their landing position that led o the beach, all haste was called or asthe lighthouse had shut down, indicating the raid may havebeen detected.

Te landing met no resistance and the men o Group One

made or the shelter o the clis anking the entrance tothe gullies leading o the beach. C roop’s leading sectionreconnoitred the let gully, but ound it impassable. Teright hand gully was then checked, but also ound blockedby wire and other deensive obstacles. Te commandos usedexplosives to clear the way, the sound was covered by theGerman batteries ring at the incoming otilla. GroupOne, then made their way up the gully into the wood. No.1 Section o C roop scouted ahead and led the way into theVarengeville Sur-Mer wood, clearing a ew houses as they

went. No. 2 Section cleared the house immediately abovethe beach and guarded the gully down to the beach.

Te single section o A roop attached to Group One worked its way behind the lighthouse and cut the observerstelephone cable running rom it back to the battery. Once Croop had worked its way orward to the wood edge acing the battery position, they were soon engaged in a reght

with the Germans.

Te Group One A roopsection then worked aroundthe ank o the Germanpositions and engaged themrom positions among thehouses. By 0540 hours all

o C roop was in positionand pouring rie, Bren lightmachine-gun, Boys anti-tank rie and mortar re onto theGermans.

wire entanglements, suering our casualties in the process.Te commandos used Rabbit netting to cross the wire. Teremainder o the Group wo, coming ashore 150 yards upthe beach rom A roop, made or the Saane River mouth,also taking casualties. Relie came when the mortar re litedto re on the withdrawing British landing crat.

Group wo soon received an opportunity to escape thebeach. Over-ying British bombers distracted the Germans

deenders long enough or the commandos to make a rushup to the Quiberville-St Marguerite Road. Crossing it, they made their way along the eastern bank o the Saane River.Te going was difcult as they moved along the river bank,as the river had overowed into the long grass beside it. By this time it was 0515 hours and ully light. B roop ledthe way, ollowed by the Force HQ and then F roop. Testeep riverbanks oered protection rom the direction o St.Marguerite, and smoke was prepared in case o re rom thedirection o Quiberville. When Group wo hit the bend inthe river they swung east towards the rear o the Germanbattery.

As the commandos o Group wo moved east the groundbecame more open and a loose ormation was adopted, thesections moving in bounds across the open areas. As they gotcloser to their objective they could here the reght taking place between the Germans and Group One.

At the woods to the rear o the German Battery B and Froops split. B roop continued east and ollowed thesouthern edge o the wood. Tey then split into their sectionsand used re and movement to advance through the orchardand village. Tey silenced a machine-gun post in the processand were soon in position to assault the battery. 95 minutesater landing they were ready or the assault.

F roop headed northeast towards the rear o the battery.Using the cover o smoke they advanced rom the woodon the German positions to penetrate their wire perimeter.Tey surprised a patrol o Germans just inside organising an assault on C roop rom Group One. Te F roop com-mandos assaulted, killing them all. Once these were clearedaway, urther resistance was met in and around the armbuildings. Te ghting was erce, but the commandos’special combat training shone through, they proved quick and deadly against all opposition encountered. Several morecasualties were sustained. Finally they reached their plannedstart positions or the assault on the battery. Tey now laid in

wait in the ditch lining the road behind the battery’s positionor the next phase o the operation.

Te Force HQ move up between the positions o B and Froops, coming under re rom F roop, but this was soonstopped by radio calls rom the HQ.

Both Group One and wo were in position or the assaultand ring on the battery. Te A roop ghting patrol (thesection attached to Group One) continued to inict heavy casualties on the Germans rom their ank position west o the battery.

Te planned Hurricane ight arrived on time to strae thebattery position, unortunately they were ollowed by someFW-190 Focke-Wul ghters who interrupted their strang run.

Luckily the commandos had already inicted sufcientdamage on the Germans and by 0607 hours the battery hadbeen silenced. Tis intense re rom Group One silenced theorward acing machine-gun positions. Group One 2-inchmortar rounds also detonated the German batteries corditedumps, stunning and burning may o the batteries crew. A German 8cm mortar opened re on C roop’s position andthey took their rst casualties. Te signal or the assault wasgiven at Z+100.

B roop attacked the buildings to the east o the guns whileF roop stormed the battery position itsel. F roop rushedacross the open ground through deensive re overrunning several strong points to nally end amongst the battery itsel.

All the Germans were quickly dispatched, with only ourprisoners taken or intelligence purposes. Te Guns weremade inoperable by explosive charges. Gun barrels, breachblocks and other equipment vital or the batteries continueduse were destroyed.

B roop mopped up the surrounding deensive positions,some pillboxes causing more casualties until nally silenced

with grenades and Tompson submachine-guns.

Germans were piled everywhere, many burned by the bat-tery’s cordite explosion and many more killed by A and Croops covering re and the assault by B and F roops.

B and F roops consolidated under the cover o smoke romtheir smoke generators and No. 77 Phosphorous grenades.

The W iThdRaWal

While B, C and F troops withdrew to Group One’s landing beach, A roop was busy guarding the St. Marguerite ank in case o German counterattack. A German patrol was sentrom St. Marguerite and was ambushed by A roop. Once

the wounded were withdrawn, A, B, C and F troops retiredcovered by C roop who were the last o the beach.

Te whole operation had been a complete success. Te No. 4commando had suered 45 casualties, 12 killed, 20 woundedand 13 missing.



Captain Wills was killed during the dash or the clis andLieutenant Loustalot took command. Loustalot was also

killed a little later.

With the Commandos pinned down in their positions by theclis, it was decided at 0700 hours to make an attempt to getback to the landing crat to make their escape. Once againthey came under heavy re rom the Germans. However, atthe waters edge they discover that the landing crat have beendamaged and made un-seaworthy. Te German launched a counterattack at 1000 hours and captured the remaining 82Commandos.

y elloW Beach 2

Meanwhile the sole LCP to hit the second beach on the western side o Berneval was to make a gallant eort toull their mission objective, the destruction o the Goebbelbattery. Tis section was commanded by Major Peter Young and consisted o himsel, two other ofcers and 17 comman-dos. With them they had ten ries, six Bren light machine-guns, three Boys anti-tank ries and two 2-inch mortars.

While still motoring towards the beach they spotted a clet inthe cli and recognised their target beach. Teir LCP madeor the beach and unloaded Young’s men without incident.

Once clear o the beach the only way to clear the cli was upthe narrow clet they had seen earlier rom the LCP, but it

was heavily protected by barbed wire. Tey had no explosivesor wire cutters to clear the way, so another approach wascalled or. Ater investigation it was discovered that the wire

was rmly attached to the gully sides, the Commandos usedthese anchor points to climb to the top o the cli. Whathad been intended as an obstacle had become an aid. Fiteenminutes later Young’s men were at the top o the gully.

Tey moved straight through the wood and towards Berneval.

east o Dieppe. Tey were to knock out the battery to stopit ring on the Canadians’ main attack on Dieppe. No. 3Commando’s attack was to work on surprise. Tey were toland under the cover o dawn and engage in an enveloping manoeuvre to out ank their target battery. However, unliketheir comrades in the No. 4 Commando at Varengeville, theattack o No. 3 Commando did not go smoothly.

As No. 3 Commando’s landing crat made their nalapproach towards their target beaches at Berneval, a Germanconvoy appeared made up o several armed trawlers escort-

ing an oil carrier. A short engagement occurred and some o the Commando’s landing crat were scattered, damaged orlost. Te Element o surprise was lost. By the time the lasto the intact landing crat beached at 0515 hours the covero darkness was also lost. Seven landing crat (LCP: Landing Crat, Personnel) made it to the beaches at Berneval, one on

Yellow Beach 2 at 0445 hours and six on Yellow Beach 1 at0515 hours (see map on page 2). Tey were covered by rerom a otilla Motorboat as they disembarked.

on y elloW Beach 1Most o the Commandos who hit the beach were rom F

roop No. 3 Commando and Captain R.L Wills took command. Also present was a small number o US Rangerscommanded by Lieutenant E. D. Loustalot. Wills had athis command 96 commandos, 6 Rangers and some Frenchguides. Once ashore they planned to make or the low section o cli in ront o Petit Berneval to the east o theBattery position.

At 0530 hours, while still unloading, a strong German patrol(about 2 or 3 platoons) romthe 572. Inanterie-Regiment arrived. A rantic reghtensued. Many Commandos

were killed trying to exit theLCPs. Te rest made or theshelter o the clis that ranon either side o the gully.Te Commandos started topush towards the gully that

was their only exit rom thebeach. A German machine-gun position was knocked itout, but progress was haltedby alert Germans in well-prepared positions. Te de-

ensive re proved too heavy to make any urther advancetowards the battery.



British Commando orces use all o the British special ruleson pages 171 to 175 o the rule book and the It’s a Raid, Not an Invasion special rule on page 4. In addition they have theollowing special rules:

Commandos are small, hard-hitting strike orces. Tey havetrained together and know each other well. Every commandoknows that no matter what happens, they are not alone. Eveni their troop runs into insurmountable trouble, anothertroop will be there to help them out or take over their partin the operation.

A Commando ignores all Support Platoons when determin-ing whether it needs to take a Company Morale Check or being below hal strength. Support Platoons never count as being either Destroyed or still on table or the purposes o a Company Morale Check.

k noW The plan

Commandos are expected to be independent-minded (i notdownright unconventional) sorts and every man is drilled inthe plan beore an attack. Tat way i the ofcers are killed,an NCO, or even a private can take over as needed.

Commando Platoons use the German Mission actics special rule.

no BRiTish Bulldog

Commandos are earless, but they are also raiders. Teir job is to get in, strike hard, and get out. Prolonged combatssimply delay their mission, so the British Bulldog rule doesnot apply to Commando platoons.

v icToRia cRossCaptain Patrick Anthony Porteous coordinated com-munications between the twogroups o No. 4 Commandoand Lovat’s headquarters during the Varengeville raid (see pages14 and 15). During the raidhe was crossing rom Lovat’sHQ to liaise with Group One

when he was conronted by a German ofcer who shot him

through the hand and arm. Hethen disarmed the German and killed him with a bayonetthereby saving the lie o a Sergeant.

Continuing on his way he soon came across a slit trench

occupied by two Germans, which he quickly dispatched with a grenade. He then arrived at Groups wo’s positionand took command ater they had lost their commander,ordering B roop to clear the buildings, he then led Froop in the nal assault on the Battery. Shot through thethigh during the assault he nally lost consciousness only ater the battery was taken.

He was awarded the Victoria Cross on 3 October 1942.Te citation or his Victoria Cross stated: “CaptainPorteous’s most gallant conduct, his brilliant leadershipand tenacious devotion to duty... were an inspiration tothe whole detachment.” He was invested with his Victoria

Cross by King George VI on October 28 1942. Porteoustold reporters outside: “It was just luck I got the award.”Patrick Porteous V.C. retired rom the army in 1970 withthe rank o Colonel, he died in 2000.

Once inside the village they looked to set up ring positionsover looking the Battery. An attempt was made to set upa Bren light machine-gun in the bell tower o the church,but it lacked a staircase or access. Te locals suggested they move through the orchard and take position in the corn eldless than 200 meters rom the German battery’s position.

Young’s men opened re on the battery once in position; they kept up a hail o re or 1½ hours, suppressing the battery

so it was unable to re. During this time the Germans hadno idea how many men were attacking them. Only aterthe Commandos had exhausted their ammunition did

they withdraw to the beach and their landing crat. At nopoint did Major Young and his men know the ate o theCommandos on Yellow beach 1.

Te attack on Berneval was unsuccessul, the Goebbelsbattery was not destroyed and No. 3 Commando lost 25killed or missing and 110 prisoners. Te only bright light in

what was a dark day or No. 3 Commando was the heroiceorts o Major Young and his men keeping the battery

silent or 1½ hours and probably saving many lives among the men o the otilla in the process.

ently provided or them to walk on’. Young was the only Commando ofcer to reach his objective and bring back allhis men. At one point, when they were approaching enemy machine-guns through a corneld, he encouraged his soldiersby telling them not to worry about bullets as standing cornmade eective protection!

Commandos are highly trained, experienced and motivated volunteers who know that Hitler has ordered them executed i captured. A Commando roop is rated as Fearless Veteran and use the Commando special rules on page 17.

Commando Sections operate as separate platoons, eachwith their own command team. Although its component Commando Sections operate as separate platoons or all other purposes, a Commando Company deploys all at the same time as a single platoon. For example, this means that you treat the entire Commando Company as a single

platoon when calculating the number o platoons held in Ambush or Reserve.
