2012 • E24 Aug 18, 2012 45mOn August 19, 1942 the Allies launched their first amphibious attack on mainland Europe at the small French port of Dieppe. At dawn, five thousand troops stormed the rocky beaches, but in the end, it was a disastrous failure with thousands of soldiers killed and taken prisoner. Dieppe Uncovered brings the events of the day to life, reenacting key moments of the raid and revealing a fact previously ignored by history books. The leader of the top secret 30th Assault Unit behind the raids was none other than Sir Ian Fleming. Could the man who created James Bond have been behind one of the blackest days of World War II?
