George Patton created a special task force to venture more than fifty miles behind enemy lines and liberate a POW camp near Hammelburg Germany. The camp held some 1,500 American prisoners including Patton's son - in - law. Hampered by ambushes and a lack of fuel and even maps the raid was a disaster one of the worst mistakes of Patton's legendary career. Out of some 300 men only three dozen returned.
