In December 1941, a daring recon mission skimmed the French coast. A Spitfire, its camera locked on target, captured the image of a mysterious device that would send shivers down the spines of Allied commanders. This single photograph ignited a sequence of events leading to one of the most audacious raids of World War II: Operation Biting, also known as the Bruneval Raid.

Join us on a journey through history, where veterans' firsthand accounts, original wartime footage, and cutting-edge technology bring the Bruneval Raid to life.
