Funky_Gibbon Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 Just finished reading Operation Fortitude, a history of the Allied deception that fooled the Nazis into holding back a large part of their army during the first weeks after D-Day (when the Allies were most vulnerable) and the double agents and their handlers who pulled it off. A very good read with some fascinating info on the characters involved like the double agent who was the inspiration for James Bond. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
