''[[The Sea Wolves]]'' is a 1980 film based on the true story of a group of aging ex-soldiers from the Calcutta Light Horse (a reserve Cavalry unit of the British Indian Army - disbanded in 1947), enlisted by the British in March 1943 for a final mission ('''Operation Creek''') to destroy a German ship, the ''Ehrenfels'', in Portuguese India during World War II. The ''Ehrenfels'' was moored in the nearby Portuguese port of Goa, where it was able to observe British shipping and radio the information to German U-boats off shore. Portugal was neutral so the ''Ehrenfels'' was safe from direct British military action.The British had to go with a covert operation to sink the German ships. The Calcutta Light Horse, Scottish Calcutta and several SOE agents attacked the ''Ehrenfels'' and several other German ships on March 9, 1943. The operation was a success. The full details of the mission were not declassified until 1977. The film, entertaining and well-acted by veteran stars such as [[Gregory Peck]], [[David Niven]], and [[Roger Moore]] (during the peak of his [[James Bond]] heyday), follows in the spirit of earlier films such as ''[[The Dirty Dozen]]'' and ''[[The Wild Geese]]''.
