We all know the story of D-Day, the Allied landings on the beaches of Normandy. However on April 27 and 28, 1944 off the south coast of England at Slapton Sands, what was to be a full scale rehearsal of the D-Day landings turned into a disaster that almost put the entire Normandy invasion in jeopardy. To this day, the official death toll from April 28th stands at 749 men killed. Now, historian Richard Bass digs deeper into the mystery, secrecy and controversy that surrounds Exercise Tiger. His research uncovers evidence that the death toll may be much greater than the official account states. http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=8dd_1349571476 WW2Docs Secret D-Day Disaster - part 2/2 dday, exercise, tiger, slapton, sands, 1944, normandy, invasion, wwii, ww2, secrecy, germany,royal, navy, friendly, fire, disaster Sat, 06 Oct 2012 20:57:29 -0400 http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=aaa_1349567932 WW2Docs June 6th, 1944.

One such place dedicated to that effort was Ft. Hunt, Virginia. Known only as a post office box number during the war, this highly secretive place was also an intelligence center. It's main goals were to send the prisoners packages which contained hidden devices to gather intelligence on the enemy forces and to aid in their escape efforts. This program also includes interviews by former members of Ft.
