Book Description

Secondhand. Very good condition. Minor edgewear. Pages sunned.

This book is a fictionalised account of WWII operations Jaywick and Rimau.

In 1942, after the fall of Singapore, Special Operations Australia (SOA), an Australian military intelligence and special reconnaissance unit were formed. Its commando arm was known as Z Force.

In 1943, a plan was devised to attack Japanese shipping in Singapore Harbour. Commandos would travel to the harbour in the vessel Krait, disguised as an Asian fishing boat.

Operation Jaywick sunk six Japanese vessels. The second operation, Rimau, was not as successful but may have sunk three ships.
