Churchill’s Secret Commander

Churchill' s Secret Commander uncovers the untold story of the Special Boat Unit (SBU), the British clandestine force that served as the umbrella organisation for multiple amphibious and combined operations units during World War II. For decades, the existence of the SBU has been entirely unknown, its role and its Commander, buried in classified documents and overlooked by historians.

Through newly discovered records from Commander Goulding' s attache case- containing Top Secret and Most Secret Naval and SIS files- this book presents the findings of a rigorous investigation rather than a traditional biography.

Goulding was also a leading participant in the disastrous 1942 Dieppe Raid, an operation that remains one of the most controversial of WWII. Goulding' s, long-hidden official testimony about the raid, which he secretly preserved, is revealed here for the first time.

This gripping account not only challenges established narratives of wartime special operations but also provides an unprecedented look at the hidden mechanisms behind Churchill' s covert war. A must-read for those fascinated by military history, espionage, and the secret world of special forces.
