This action-packed true story has aging British expats on an unconventional WWII covert mission to attack Germans transmitting information to U-boats in neutral territory.
This war adventure stars Gregory Peck, Roger Moore and David Niven. The film is based on the book Boarding Party by James Leasor, a real incident which took place in World War II. The mission involved the Calcutta Light Horse's covert attack on 9 March 1943 against a German merchant ship, which transmitted information to U-boats from Mormugao Harbour in the neutral territory of Goa.
