Description
The SAS's most daring rescue mission ever. In September 2000, eleven British soldiers were captured by a notorious militia gang in Sierra Leone. Surrounded and outnumbered, their chances of escape seemed slim. However, the British government refused to give up, and a naval squadron was assembled offshore to support a daring rescue operation. The stage was set for a high-stakes mission that would push the SAS to its limits. With negotiations proving futile, the armed forces were forced to take drastic action to secure the safe release of their captured comrades.
