Cornwall's Covert WWII Special Operation
On the night of 26 November, historians Bob White and Jonathan Griffin take the stage at the National Maritime Museum Cornwall to shed light on one of the county's lesser-known chapters — the covert special operations carried out on Cornish soil and water during the Second World War. This talk is the third in a three-part autumn lecture series tracing Cornwall's long relationship with conflict and coastal defence, from Tudor fortifications to the secret missions of the 1940s. Expect detailed research presented in an accessible, engaging way. A good fit for history enthusiasts, local residents with a curiosity about wartime Cornwall, and anyone who has wondered what really went on along these shores after dark. Tickets are required — book via the museum's website.
