Raid At Dieppe Military History Paperback Book by Quentin Reynolds Avon 1943
Dress Rehearsal for D-Day
ZERO HOUR
The ships stretched over the Channel as far as the eye could pierce the night...
fat transports, invasion barges, sleek destroyers. And arched overhead, a protecting umbrella, was the RAF....
ZERO HOUR-5:20 AM-when the British Commandos, with Canadian and American reinforcements, would land on the ghostly beaches at Dieppe to battle through barbed wire, mines, and the merciless fire of Hitler's mighty Wehrmacht!
This is the story of that tragic, heroic, brilliant attack-carefully plotted by the Commander-in-Chief of Combined Opera- tions, Lord Louis Mountbatten-the raid that served as THE DRESS REHEARSAL for the INVASION OF EUROPE!
