Brilliant documentary, nicely interspersed with recreations, of the true story of Operation Greenup. As a WW2 fanatic I was absolutely glued to it the whole way through. The courage and desire of these men was unbelievable. The early days of the OSS ( forerunner to the CIA) where the men virtually picked and suggested their own missions was exciting stuff. These men were true patriots who did everything for their love of freedom and their detestation of the Nazis. They really did change the course of history and helped to shorten the war. Fred Mayer especially was an absolute hero and his torture in Nazi controlled Innsbruck was an incredible act of survival and will. Nicely done.
