«Zero Six Bravo» is the military history book by Damien Lewis, published by Quercus Publishing in hardcover (336 pages, in English).
In March 2003, M Squadron of the British Special Boat Service, with SAS members, was sent a thousand miles behind enemy lines in Iraq to secure the surrender of the Iraqi army's V Corps, vastly superior in number. The mission, codenamed «Operation No Return», ended in an ambush by Saddam Hussein's Fedayeen and a desperate escape in which the operators inflicted severe damage on the enemy while outnumbered and outgunned. The account vindicates the sixty soldiers who were accused of cowardice and narrates one of the toughest special forces battles behind enemy lines since the Second World War.
The book is a true non-fiction account originally published in 2014. Its subtitle is «60 Special Forces. 100,000 Enemy. The Explosive True Story» and it is considered a classic of the special operations genre.
Damien Gavin Lewis is a British author and filmmaker who has spent over twenty years reporting from and writing about conflict zones in many countries. He has produced about twenty films.
