Long Range Desert Group - Barce Raid 80th Anniversary - Valor & Victory
Join us as we run a game of Barry Doyle’s Valor & Victory, commemorating the 80th Anniversary of one of the famous raids mounted by the Long Range Desert Group in World War II.
On the night of 13-14 September 1942, “B” Squadron of the LRDG (G1 and T1 Patrols) under Major Easonsmith launched Operation Caravan (part of Operation Agreement). This was a daring raid on the Barce airfield in Libyan Cyrenaica, housing several bomber units of the Royal Italian Air Force. The raid destroyed over thirty Axis aircraft, making Operation Caravan the only real success in Operation Agreement.
We’ll be using the Valor & Victory gaming system to see if we can match the success of these intrepid desert raiders in a live stream of the Sitrep Podcast.
