"On 25 May 1944, 800 men of the 500th SS Parachute Battalion descended on Drvar, a town behind enemy lines in north-western Bosnia. The aim of "Operation Rosselsprung" or Knight's move"--Was to kill or capture Marshal Tito in his mountain base. A daring glider-and parachute-borne assault was intended to snatch the partisan leader from inside his safe have, and hold out until a ground assault relieved them the next day. Tito, however, escaped, from his mountain hideout and the elite paratroopers were counter-attacked and nearly destroyed by his partisans. With rare photos of the raid and new maps and artwork, this book tells the story of the raid and analyzes the intelligence and tactical failures that led to the paratroopers defeat"--Back cover.
