Tour description:
Join We Happy 506 this November for an unforgettable two-day tour across the battle-scarred landscapes of Sicily, tracing the bold footsteps of the SAS during the legendary Operation Husky, 1943.
Inspired by the hit BBC series SAS Rogue Heroes, this immersive journey will bring the screen to life as we follow the daring mission featured in the show—comparing drama to documented history. Discover where fact meets fiction, and uncover the real stories of courage behind the episode.
Tour Day 1 – Retrace the SAS’s path through Sicily, analysing key locations, ambushes, and sabotage missions featured in the series. From the landing beaches, coastal batteries to the Sicilian towns. We will also look at the actions of the 1st Airlanding Brigade at Primosole Bridge, Operation Ladbrook/Fustain. The day will conclude with a short service of remembrance at the CWGC Catania War Cemetery.
Tour Day 2 – We will explore the dramatic US landings on Sicily’s beaches and the crucial actions of the US 82nd Airborne Division inland. Visiting the landing beaches of where U.S. Infantry and U.S. Rangers came ashore and fought their way inland. We will visit the area of Gela to take in the first U.S. Airborne assault in their military history and to analyse the outcomes. What lessons were learnt for future operations that would take place.
