The Guns Of Navarone (1961) BRRIP Dubbed In Hindi (Dual Audio) Mediafire






German and Italian soldiers occupied Greece and its many islands when Greece fell in April 1941. The next month, the allies also lost the island of Crete. When Italy surrendered to the Allies in September 1943, the British saw an opportunity to retake the Grecian islands, occupying Leros that same month. By October, the Brits had 3,000 forces in place on the island. The Germans responded by ordering the commander of the 22nd Infantry Division, Generalleutnant Friedrich-Wilhem Muller, to take Leros. The German effort to retake Leros began with nearly 50 days of air strikes followed by an amphibious landing on Nov. 12, 1943 and a drop of 500 parachutists, most of whom landed safely. During the night, more German reinforcements arrived. Fighting on the 14th and 15th resulted in more casualties but no conclusion. On the night of the 15th, the Germans landed an additional 1,000 troops and artillery. Despite being outnumbered, the Brits managed to retake part of Apetiki, land an additional company and capture 170 German prisoners, marching them to Samos. On the morning of Nov. 16, the British commander, Brigadier Tilney, surrendered 3,200 British soldiers and 5,320 Italian solders who had agreed to fight with the Brits. The Americans withdrew air support, leaving three British battalions to fight on for five more days.
