The planned place of the jump was 10 km north of Tábor, in fact they jumped near Purkarec near Č. Budějovice.

Parachutes and most of the material remained hanging on the trees and could not be removed. The second radio broke when it fell. In the morning, the paratroopers went to the interception addresses, which, however, disappointed. Commander Lepařík separated from the others and the remaining three members of the airborne force, in a situation where they lost material and the commander decided to resign from their task (intelligence around Tábor and at the end of the war preparation for the uprising) and leave for Slovakia.

Rtn František Trpík was arrested by the Gestapo on July 27, 1944. On August 5, 1944, Gypsy and Hanina were also arrested and the May Uprising took place in Pankrác.

Lepařík tried interception addresses in the Tábor region, on one of them he got into a shootout with the Gestapo. He fled to the river Lužnice and continued to Moravia. On October 17, 1944, he was lured to Prague by his former parachutist Horák ( SULPHUR) and arrested. Under the guise of shooting his parents, he accepted the role of confidant, but tried to detach himself from the Gestapo and was exposed. On January 20, 1945, he was transferred to the Small Fortress in Terezín, where he was shot without trial on April 28, 1945.
