Carter's Commandos #6
Operation Terminus
Italy is a a beautiful country until you have to fight for it.
From rescuing defecting politicians to blowing up supply dumps, Carter’s Commandos eventually find themselves cut off, defending a town on the wrong side of a swollen river, fighting off a Nazi armoured division while waiting for the British army to come to their rescue. Once again, the great General Montgomery has hung 15 Commando out to dry.
This story is based on the real-life adventures of the Army Commandos. Operation Terminus tells the story of a battle that is now barely remembered, except by those who were there. They did things so unbelievable that the world would be stunned if they were to happen today. But they just called it “being a commando”.
Read the remarkable story of a battle that was almost lost, but for the heroism of the commandos.
