Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - By the spring of 1944, British intelligence had achieved something without precedent in the history of warfare: it controlled every single German spy operating in the United Kingdom. Not one had escaped detection. Some had been captured, others had turned themselves in, and one - the sole exception - had taken his own life rather than be turned. Into this total dominion over enemy intelligence, the Twenty (XX) Committee - established in January 1941 by MI5 officer Thomas Robertson and Oxford historian John Cecil Masterman - built the most elaborate deception apparatus in modern military history. Its instrument was the Double Cross System: a network of turned agents feeding a continuous diet of false intelligence to the Abwehr, Germany's military intelligence service.The deception that enabled D-Day, Operation Fortitude, did not work through grand theatrical lies.
