About this title

Synopsis

In the first week of Operation Desert Storm, four SAS convoys slipped across the Saudi border into Iraq. Their mission was to destroy Saddam's mobile Scud missiles. Spence recounts in graphic detail the untold story of the most successful of those SAS convoys. It includes an extraordinary account of the successful attack on Victor Two, an Iraqi command facility central to Saddam's Scud operations. Owing to intelligence mistakes in Saudi, a handful of SAS soldiers found themselves pitched against a force of 300 Iraqis . . .
