The Chatham Rats — David Mariner

They deliberately betrayed the British Mediterranean Fleet, fought a tragic action with British destroyers, defied the Luftwaffe, the Italian High Command, the Prussian Gestapo, even a crack Wehrmacht paratroop regiment. They were called the Chatham rats and they had one aim - to find and exterminate the men who designed the first guided missile in history - the radio-controlled marine glider bomb.
