Tales began to leak out of night-time explosions and seaborne activity. On a dark night in 1944, a beautiful stretch of the Devon coast became the scene of desperate horror. This was practice for Exercise Tiger, the main rehearsal for the Utah Beach landings...This fiasco, in which nearly 1,000 soldiers died, was buried by officials until it was almost forgotten.
That is, until Ken Small discovered the story, and decided to dedicate the rest of his life to honouring the brave young men who perished in the disastrous exercise. Pulling a Sherman tank from the seabed, Ken created a memorial to those who died and started to share their story, and his, with the world.This updated edition of a bestselling classic is a gripping tale of wartime disaster and rescue in the words
