[YouTube] The SAS commandos silently infiltrated the German air base at Bagush, removed the nearby guards with their knives, set up the plastic explosives in every aircraft nearby, and crawled out of the perimeter completely undetected.Minutes later, the towering figure of Paddy Mayne, the Irish Lion, observed the fireworks from afar. The enemy base was in flames, but that was not enough for the Irish warrior, who said: (QUOTE) "Damn, we did 40 aircraft. Some of the bloody primers must have been damp."
Unsatisfied with the havoc he had just unleashed with only three SAS commandos, he ordered them back to their heavily armed jeeps and told them the job was not over yet.
The commandos wanted to obliterate the entire base, storming into the blazing perimeter guns.
Such was the restless nature of the Irish Lion Commando, unleashed onto North Africa, leaving a path of destruction and paralyzing the Axis powers.
