Summary
Joseph E. Persico: Penetration into the Reich
In the second half of 1944, when the outcome of the war was looming, the Western Allies, stopped at the borders of Germany, faced a largely unknown enemy - fascist Germany and its military machinery. Although there were clear signs of the end on all fronts, Germany, indoctrinated by years of fascist propaganda and intimidated by the brute force of the fascist method of \"creating order\" did not relent. Faced with the need for as many and as accurate information as possible from the closed and strictly guarded Germany, the American service OSS succeeds in inserting more than two hundred agents into the hermetically sealed Reich. This operation is one of the sharpest and most organized undertakings in the history of the intelligence service.
