Description
Bloody Heroes tells the story of Operation Telic, the opening assault of the Iraq war undertaken by crack British troops. In October 2003, they launched a mission to seize the Al Faw peninsula, a crucial transition point for most of the country's oil supplies.
The objective was to take control quickly, preventing the potential destruction of oil fields. This intense operation marked the beginning of a long and complex conflict in Iraq.
