Churchill's secret band of fearless warriors.
[Mail On Line] One of the most extraordinary stories of World War II is also one of the least commonly known, that of a small band of men charged by Winston Churchill himself with carrying out 'a butcher-and-bolt reign of terror' behind enemy lines. Often dosed up on powerful amphetamines, they were an eclectic, wildly unconventional bunch, one of whom favoured the bow-and-arrow as his weapon of choice.

They went initially by a prosaic name, Small Scale Raiding Force (SSRF), operating under the aegis of the secretive Special Operations Executive, which had been formed in July 1940 to carry out, in Damien Lewis's words, 'operations seen as too politically explosive, illegal or unconscionable as to be embraced by the wider British establishment'.
