Hi there. First time poster so hello to all out there. I'm interested in finding the name of a movie i have seen a couple of times. Here are some things that i remember about the movie. I think it had 4 (men) main characters called up by the government from universities over the counrty It s black and white and showed the development of radar (main theme). In one scene one of them goes on a commando raid in France to try to capture a radar site. Also they fly in a bomber and get radar returns off a town while flying. Also they did night fighters using the radar returns to find other planes They also stay a a seaside resort while working with their wives / partners with a housekeeper who's son is in the bomber that works with the sciencists but can't tell his mum. (More info just added) I beleive sone of the chararcters is based on one following people Mr. A.D.Blumlein, Civilian E.M.I. Mr. C.O.Browne, Civilian E.M.I. Mr. F.Blythen, Civilian E.M.I. Comes from this site http://www.doramusic.com/crashsite.htm as this site matches in what i remember about the film Hope this helps someone remember the name of the movie. Thanks for any help.
Hi Bob and welcome to the forum - I had a hunt but found nothing yet, but I'm sure someone will know possibly the raid was Op Biting; Operation Biting - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia if that helps
Thanks Spartanroller for the welcome. Have just read about Operation Biting and seems to add to the movie info. Have added some more info about what i beleive is the scene about the crash of one of the planes. Thnks
Thank you so much. From looking at the info about the movie that one seems to be the correct one Thanks again
