Description

March 1945. As the Allies cross the Rhine, 1 and 2 Special Air Service launch their final campaign in northwest Europe. Operating in fast-moving jeep columns, they strike deep behind enemy lines — linking with airborne forces, sabotaging German movements, and disrupting retreating units ahead of the main advance. This episode follows their actions across the Rhine and into Germany during the opening phase of Operation Archway.

Part Two will continue the story into April and May 1945, through the liberation of Bergen-Belsen and the final push to the Elbe.
