Only the British would have tried this - a preposterous 'mission impossible' which earned more Victoria Crosses (5) in the Second World War than any other single action, and ensured the feared German warship Tirpitz would play no part in the Battle of the Atlantic. In all, 89 decorations were awarded to members of the raiding party. There is a worthy memorial to the heroism and skill of those British Commandos at the Prince of Wales pier, Falmouth.
