‘DOUBLE CROSS’

29 April 2012 /
D-Day, June 6, 1944, the turning point of World War II, was a victory of arms. But it was also a triumph for a different kind of operation: one of deceit, aimed at convincing the Nazis that Calais and Norway, not Normandy, were the targets of the 150,000-strong invasion force. The deception that involved every branch of Allied wartime intelligence at its heart was the “Double Cross System,” a team of double agents. This is their story.
