X Troop:The Secret Jewish Commandos of World War II
June 1942 - The shadow of the Third Reich has fallen across the European continent. In desperation, Winston Churchill and his chief of staff formed an unusual plan: a new commando unit made up of Jewish refugees who escaped to Britain. The resulting volunteers were a motley group of intellectuals, artists, and athletes, most from Germany and Austria. Many had been interned as enemy aliens, and lost their whole worlds. Trained in counterintelligence and advanced combat, this top secret unit became known as X Troop.
