On August 13th 1942, the Allied oil tanker Ohio was attacked and crippled by dive bombers, as it tried to reach Malta as part of Operation Pedestal – a desperate mission to resupply the besieged mediterranean island. Ohio was left stranded 60 miles from its destination, with no power, nowhere to hide and no protection against further attacks. But help was on its way, in the shape of a motley crew of escorts, who were determined to drag the tanker to Malta no matter the danger and no matter how long it took.
