Sinossi
James Bond has Q Branch to supply him with ingenious equipment to use on his missions; during the Second World War, SOE field agents had the Camouflage Section. The men and women of the Section, hailing from a variety of trades and professions, turned everyday items into concealment devices to carry weapons, ammunition, film, radios, false documents, microfilm and codes. These vessels ranged from oil cans, firewood and ornamental clocks, to record players, water bottles and tubes of toothpaste. Explosives and incendiary devices for industrial and military sabotage were concealed in dead rats, hollowed-out pieces of coal, books, torches, statues and suitcases. Convincing disguises were created to ensure that field agents would pass as locals in whatever region they were parachuted into. Essentially the Camouflage Section was responsible for keeping SOE agents behind enemy lines safe in the most nerve-wracking of circumstances―when under the suspicious gaze of the Gestapo. After the war, SOE’s Camouflage Section was dissolved, but not before its work was collated and published in a secret document. That document remained classified for thirty years. This is the first time it has been presented in book form to the general public.

In 2010 Craig retired from London's Metropolitan Police after 30 years of service. He lives in south-west London where he makes regular contributions to military history magazines. He also often visits museums and military events around the world. This is his ninth book on topics pertaining to the world wars. 47 colour, 213 b/w illustrations James Bond has Q Branch to supply him with ingenious equipment to use on his missions; during the Second World War, SOE field agents had the Camouflage Section.
