‘With’ probably, he most likely would have been OSS (Sterling Hayden being the most famous OSS agent in Yugoslavia). The British used the SOE.

The SAS were used in that area, both mainland and the few Yugoslav islands, but it was the SOE and OSS who were the main allied support.

I'll never understand why he didn't call DeNiro's bluff. I would have just said "White. White clapboard siding with a blue tile roof."

DeNiro never would have known.
