This week in history, July 1940 the British government created one of the most daring and unconventional organizations of WW2: the Special Operations Executive (SOE).

Operating in secrecy, SOE agents carried out sabotage, espionage, and guerrilla warfare behind enemy lines.

80 years on, honouring the fallen remembering the sacrifice of the eight aircrew members and four OSS Operators.

Who in March 1945 lost their lives when their B-24 Liberator crashed while resupplying Operation Rype.

Gone but not forgotten. RIP warriors. #rype

Paying our respects to the SAS fallen at Fayid cemetery Commonwealth War Graves

"They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old:
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning, we will remember them."

Zipping around in 4x4s over sand dunes is a blast today, but 80 years ago, it would’ve been a whole different vibe.

No air-con, and definitely no GPS, just an open-top vehicle with the sun blazing down and eyes peeled for German aircraft ready to strafe you.

In the tyre tracks of Rogue Heroes. On the hunt for the #WW2 landing grounds of Bagush and Sidi Haneish. All were raided by ‘L’ Detachment SAS in July 1942 @soe-expeditions.bsky.social

The German Memorial at El Alamein. After over 80 years battlefield burials are still being discovered, the Germans being interned here #WW2

The battle was named after El Alamein Railway Station. Today it still stands although it’s rather dilapidated. Always nice to compare Them & Now images @GuildofBG @SOE_Expeditions #WW2 #Battlefields

The mighty Citadel of Saladin, Cairo. Used as a British garrison and base during #WW1 #WW2 and home to the #LRDG who used this fort as its formal HQ, workshops, stores and vehicle assembly area #SAS #Battlefields

From the scorching desert sands of Africa to the icy winter plains of Norway.

Join us this February as we retrace the footsteps of the legendary Kompani Linge SOE operatives on Operation Gunnerside.

Are you tough enough to follow in their footsteps?

Found this wonderful captured Italian map from Hellfire Pass to Tobruk, dated 1939. It is overprinted with motor vehicle and camel tracks, as used by the LRDG and SAS. It should come in handy for SOE Expedition’s October North Africa tour soeexpeditions.com/north-africa...

Desert War fashion, LRDG style 😎

“Two men are going to stop Rommel. One of them is Adolf Hitler who cannot give him enough fuel, and the other is me, who's going to blow up the little he has.”

Michael Caine & Nigel Davenport ‘Play Dirty’ in this 1960’s homage to the LRDG and SAS Desert War

Just joined, how exciting.
