It's July 10, 1943, and the Allied Forces have evicted the Axis Powers from North Africa and can finally begin the Italian Campaign. The first mission: Operation Husky, a massive amphibious invasion of the island of Sicily by American, British, Canadian, and French forces. Before the assault can start, however, an elite new unit of U.S. Army Rangers and combat engineers called Force X must storm and clear the beaches and main streets of Gela. Thousands of ships, aircraft, and troops depend on the success of these soldiers. It's a brutal mission, but failure is not an option. 

An elite force of Norwegian resistance fighters returns to their invaded homeland to carry out one of the most daring and significant acts of sabotage in World War II. During what could be a suicide mission, they must raid and destroy the heavy water production facility at the Vemork hydroelectric power plant at Rjukan, Norway in February 1943. The Nazis intended the heavy water for nuclear weapons research. The British Special Operations Executive (SOE) named this raid Operation Gunnerside.
