Battleplan: Assault From The Air

Series 1, episode 2

Series examining the strategies used in warfare throughout history. Attack from the air introduces a third dimension to a battlefield - military planners it 'vertical envelopment'. In this programme we study Operation Mercury, the German invasion of Crete in 1941. Plus the thinking behind Operation Junction City in Vietnam in 1967, when US and South Vietnamese forces used paratroops to block the enemy's line of retreat, and then helicopter-borne forces to clear the area ahead of them.
