William Edward Sparks was a British Royal Marine Commando famous for his role in World War II. He was the last surviving member of the 'Cockleshell Heroes,' a team of commandos who undertook a daring mission known as Operation Frankton in 1942. This involved paddling 85 miles from the Bay of Biscay to the Gironde estuary in German-occupied France, where they successfully planted limpet mines on merchant ships that supported the Nazi war effort. Sparks' courage and skill contributed significantly to the operation's historical importance.
