Description
The Sea Wolves: Filmed as "Boarding Party" is a gripping account of a pivotal World War II operation.
In 1943, the Germans had a secret transmitter on one of their ships in the neutral harbour of Goa, guiding U-boats against Allied shipping in the Indian Ocean. The British needed to silence this transmitter, but how? A group of civilian bankers, merchants and solicitors, remnants of an old territorial unit, were tasked with finding a solution.
A foreword by Earl Mountbatten of Burma adds context to this remarkable story, which was filmed as "Boarding Party".
