Operation Batman was a Second World War raid by British Commandos near then-occupied Cherbourg France from 15-16 November 1942. The men meant to take part in the raid were drawn from No. 12 Commando and No. 62 Commando.[1] The raid was canceled before any commandos alit due to high waters that obstructed a safe landing. [2]
