Spying in WWII:
Combat troops took center stage in World War II. Yet behind the scenes were other, shadowy warriors who helped shape outcomes on the battlefield.
Spies slipped behind enemy lines to organize resistance cells, sabotage operations, and uncover enemy plans. Masters of deception scattered false clues and even created phantom armies. Wartime offered women and men from all walks of life opportunities to serve -- usually without medals or fame. And often, the more successful they were, the less their contributions are known. |
