    Post Operating Biting - Stealing Hitler's Radar

    Operating Biting - Stealing Hitler's Radar. I just saw this on the Smithsonian Channel. What a great story.


    The daring Raid on Bruneval to capture German radar marked a major turning point in the technology battle of World War II. This is its story.
