“MAJOR MARTIN” GOES TO WAR

After Commander Montagu and his colleagues had been given official approval for their dangerous escapade, they encountered manifold problems.

First, they conducted an assiduous search for a body that looked as though it had recently been killed in an airplane disaster.

Then, a detailed history of the man had to be invented that would be so impeccable that the enemy would accept its authenticity. This meant documents, love letters, personal effects, keys, photographs, etc. Each step was fraught with difficulty, but the schemers were unbelievably resourceful.

As a result, in the late spring of 1942, “Major Martin” was prepared to do his part for his country.
