ROYAL Marines have smashed the most important Taliban stronghold yet in a ferocious three-day assault.
They killed 130 enemy in the daring raid on bases in the opium-swamped Marjah region of Helmand.
Six-hundred commandos fought to the limit of their endurance — sleeping just two hours a night — to avenge the deaths of 32 comrades during their six-month tour.
Our Boys suffered just two wounded compared to up to 300 injured insurgents.
After being air-dropped on top of the enemy, they battled for up to 12 hours a day.
