	Dieppe Raid - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Dieppe Raid, also known as The Battle of Dieppe or Operation Jubilee, during World War II, was an Allied attack on the German-occupied port of Dieppe, France on August 19, 1942.
		The previous Chief of Combined Operations, Roger Keyes, who had commanded the famous raid on Zeebrugge in 1918, had been ordered to organize raids on occupied Europe.
		Operation JUBILEE still relied on the 2nd Canadian Infantry Division to attack Dieppe, Puys and Pourville, while the paratroop assault on the flank gun batteries was replaced by an amphibious assault by Commandos.

		The operation was to last twelve hours, a front attack taking place on the beach at Dieppe, after landings on both sides at Pourville and Puys, thus neutralizing the defences overlooking the main beach.

		Operation JUBILEE began as Operation RUTTER in April of 1942.
		For JUBILEE, however, they were issued with brand new guns, guns which they had only the time it took to voyage to France to work in, and a scarcity of ammunition to work with.
		In the ensuing fight the landing craft were scattered, the German units on the eastern beaches alerted, and the fog of war began to descend on the operation.

	Operation ‘Rutter’ — The Planned Attack on Dieppe 7 July 1942
		Operation Rutter was in fact the forerunner to Operation Jubilee — the Allied attack on Dieppe in August 1942.
		The size and scale of the operation made it too large for Army Commandos (the force Combined Operations had at their disposal) to carry out by themselves so regular troops deployed in the UK would be involved, most likely coming from Lieutenant General Bernard Montgomery’s South Eastern Command.
		After weeks of training and preparation the troops embarked on their craft but the order to sail was not given as the period of time when the tides were most suitable coincided with a bout of very unsettled weather.

		Sixth, combined operations should in future be undertaken from the viewpoint of having a unity of command and having the various political goals and objectives brought together under a coherent plan.
		In Jubilee’s case, the goals were neither clear nor concise and the Armed Services were not particularly unified in their commitment or approach to the operation.
		The operation suffered from having alterations and adjustments being done at a whole host of different levels, while planning was conducted in a variety of different locations, by different groups, all of which were affected by inter-service rivalry.

		Originally code-named "Operation Rutter," the objective was the French port of Dieppe.
		The 1942 raid on the French port of Dieppe, code-named Operation Jubilee, was spearheaded by Churchill's new Chief of Combined Operations, Louis Mountbatten, who chose the Canadian 2nd Division to lead the attack.
		Sixty years later, it seems obvious that Jubilee was a bizarre operation with no chance of success whatsoever and likely to result in a huge number of casualties.

	RAID ON DIEPPE
		As the operation was a raid, the time on shore was limited by the anticipated rate of reinforcement of the enemy and governed by the distance of' the landing from the objective.
		Large adjustments in the operation orders were rapidly made by the Naval and Military Force Commanders' staffs, and despatched the same day to all ships concerned, and the expedition could have sailed at any time had the weather permitted, albeit the operation would have been somewhat handicapped.
		General Montgomery strongly deprecated the revival of the operation, on the grounds that once the fully briefed forces had been dispersed, all hope of secrecy would be lost and he recommended that the raid on Dieppe should be cancelled" for all time".

		The allies chose the port of Dieppe, and the attack-plan was code-named “Operation Rutter.” The attack was very important because it was the first-ever Combined Operation for the allies.
		Operation Jubilee had no fighter cover, no overall commander, and no bombers to soften up the area of attack.
		Operation Jubilee also convinced the allies that a landing on open beaches had a greater chance for success than a landing in a port, and that such a landing should include the creation of a man-made harbor to support and reinforce the area after the landings.

		But his faith is misplaced - the team is excruciatingly inept, bungling even the simplest of tasks and, embarrassingly, often embroiling famous faces in their foul-ups (including the Arsenal and England goalkeeper David Seaman, and the businessman Victor Kiam, both of whom appeared in first-series episodes as themselves).
		Any thoughts that the initial premise might be too thin were dispelled by the creativity of the actors and the strength of the ongoing plot (which could have stood on its own without the fly-on-the-wall-film gimmick).
