Two days after Christmas 1944, during the
harshest winter in living memory, 33 SAS
troops parachuted into the valley of Rossano,
Northern Italy.
Carried out in broad daylight, the parachute drop was intended to
deceive observing enemy forces into believing that a full parachute
brigade of 400 men had landed behind them.
