Operation Crackers. Sixteen men from No. 10 (Inter-Allied) Commando, No. 12 Commando and No. 30 Commando. Their mission is to attack an observation post, take prisoners and reconnoitre another observation post at Sognefjord in Norway.
After landing it becomes clear that rough seas prevent the men from completing their mission. Instead, an observation post is manned for a week undetected, gathering information. No casualties are suffered.
