Huge thanks to VAER for sponsoring this video. Check out their outstanding collection of watches right here: https://vaer-watches.sjv.io/battleguide On a cold April night in 1944, as thousands of US troops shivered offshore, on yet another training exercise for the upcoming Normandy landings, nine darkened vessels bristling with torpedoes and guns slipped unseen through the shallow waters off the coast of Devon in south-west England. They stayed only a few hours, but by the time they left, hundreds of American servicemen were dead, drowned, frozen, burned or simply disappeared in the chaos of that night. This is the story of Exercise Tiger. Creating these videos is a lot of work, and it would not be possible without your support.
