Operation Felix

Gary Arndt | Glassbox Media
About this episode

Early in the second world war, the Germans found themselves with a metaphorical pebble in their shoe. The pebble was actually a rather large rock that happened to guard the entrance to the Mediterranean Sea. 

Unfortunately for them, it happened to be controlled by the British.

If they could remove the British, they could solve their problem and maybe do something for Hitler’s friend, Francisco Franco. 

Learn more about Operation Felix, the planned German invasion of Gibraltar via Spain, on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
