Don't mention the war

On March 28th 1942, Royal Navy and Commando forces attacked the docks at St. Nazaire. Under heavy fire, and against overwhelming odds, they successfully completed their mission; putting the docks out of action for the rest of the war. 169 British troops were killed, 200 captured, and 5 VCs awarded.

Today, courtesy of the MoD, the world can hear how modern British forces will blub like schoolboys if you deny them a couple of episodes of Eastenders.
