Event Details
Who were The Cockleshell Heroes:
The Cockleshell Heroes were a team of Royal Marine Commandos who were trained on the Beaulieu River.
The task of the Cockleshell Heroes was simple. Destroy as many ships in Bordeaux Harbour as was possible so that the harbour itself would be blocked with wreckage, thus rendering it incapable of fully operating as a harbour. This was to be called Operation Frankton.
Are you up for the challenge?
During the day your team will endeavour to solve a variety of different tasks and challenges to help you achieve the final mission. This is a great chance to not only test your teams working skills but appreciate the beauty of the New Forest from the river.
Included in the day:
* All necessary equipment
* Overall event management
* Lunch
* Soft drinks
* Morning & Afternoon tea/coffee
* Winning team medals
