The Commandos were formed in 1940 at the personal behest of Winston Churchill, wanting a force capable of carrying out raids and disrupting German operations throughout occupied Europe. Volunteers all, from across every branch of the British Armed Forces and including a handful of foreign nationals intent on taking the fight to the Axis forces and ensuring that no matter where they were stationed, no rear-line guard or bored sentry would ever be completely at ease...

Trained to the highest standards and equipped with their pick of whatever equipment necessary to get the job done - from the Vickers K machine gun, the Fairbairn-Sykes fighting knife, Colt .45 pistols, or the formidable Thompson submachine gun - they were a thorn in the side of Axis forces wherever they struck, destroying fuel dumps, factories, munitions and accounting for scores of enemy casualties. This lead to the issue of Der Kommandobefehl - The Commando Order - that mandated any captured Commandos were to be executed without trial, such was the fear they engendered in German high command.
