[InMemoriam]

Wow, thanks for pointing me to the successful Abwehr penetration of the Dutch Resistance. The Germans referred to it as the England Game (Englandspiel).

Thanks, I knew about the problem but didn't know the Germans had put a name on it!

I read the Leo Marks book Between Silk and Cyanide and he was pretty worked up about it all those years later. He was in the Special Operations Executive and figured out the Dutch operation was compromised but couldn't get his superior to do anything about it. Seems to have been a combination of vanity, bureaucratic rivalry and refusal to admit a mistake.
