Sky History’s “Commando Missions” takes viewers behind enemy lines, recounting the daring top-secret operations carried out by Allied commandos during WWII. Monday’s episode, “Musketoon Operation,” focuses on a particularly audacious raid against a German-held power station deep inside Nazi-occupied Norway.
The mission, involving a clandestine submarine crossing, a treacherous overland trek, and the ultimate goal of destroying the Glomfjord power plant, provides a minute-by-minute look at the bravery of the soldiers involved. This series uses dramatic reconstructions, archive footage, and animation to bring these stories to life.
These covert operations were a critical part of the Allied strategy, disrupting Hitler’s war machine from within.
Tune in to Sky History on Monday, April 28th at 9:00 PM GMT for a gripping account of this audacious mission.
