The Tip of the Sword

Raiding Forces Small Operations Group, under Colonel John Randal, conducts covert night operations on the Italian-held island of Castelrozzo, aiming to establish it as a strategic base for raids in the Aegean Sea. As military reorganizations shift tactics from desert patrols to high-speed boat assaults, the unit prepares for upcoming missions, including a clandestine night jump on Sicily to seize a critical bridge for Allied forces. Commander Ian Fleming is assigned to oversee a top-secret operation, adding an element of intrigue to the ongoing military endeavors.
