It’s 1942, and Britain is in the midst of WW2.

 

On HMS Petard, amidst battle, three men act with bravery and courage, in the process capturing vital Nazi documents and secret codebooks that helped Bletchley Park to crack the enigma code, and ultimately help win the war.

 

For decades following the war, their story went unrecognised. This film recounts that story and pays tribute to what they achieved.
