After 80 years, more details are coming to light about this disastrous Allied raid. Did Intelligence interests or personal ambition overrule common sense? By Michael Tucker of the NSDM staff.
Long Description:
One German observer remarked that the attack on Dieppe was “Too small for an invasion, too big for a raid.” What factors were involved that led to the launching of this raid by British, Canadian and American forces? Inter-Allied politics, personal ambitions, Intelligence operations, and other issues all contributed. What went wrong (a lot), what went right and what lessons were learned from this debacle? Presented by Michael Tucker of the National Security Decision Making Game staff, who will show some of his photos from his own research on the battlefields.
