Operation Judgement

Operation Judgement was a significant military operation conducted by British forces during World War II in 1942. Its main objective was to destroy a major German-occupied naval installation in the French port of Saint-Nazaire. This operation involved an audacious raid by commandos and naval forces, aimed at crippling the German U-boat fleet's ability to launch attacks in the Atlantic. By attacking the dry dock at Saint-Nazaire, British forces sought to disrupt enemy operations and boost Allied morale, exemplifying the strategic importance of precision strikes against key infrastructure during wartime.
