Best-selling author Damien Lewis joins us to talk about the real men that were portrayed in the recent Guy Ritchie movie. Operation Postmaster was a British mission conducted on the Spanish island of Fernando Po, now known as Bioko, off West Africa in the Gulf of Guinea in 1942. The operation was carried out by the Small Scale Raiding Force (SSRF) and the Special Operations Executive (SOE) in January 1942. Their objective was to board the Italian and German ships in the harbour and sail them to Lagos. The SSRF under the command of Major Gus March-Phillipps left Britain in August 1941 and sailed the Brixham trawler, Maid of Honour, to the Spanish colony.
