Produktinformationen zu „The Speedicut Memoirs (ePub)“
In the last volume of The Speedicut Memoirs,
Charles Speedicut relates his involvement, as a member of the Special
Operations Executive, in many of the highly successful deception
strategies masterminded by the cross-dressing Colonel Dudley Clarke,
including Operation MINCEMEAT. He also discloses his role in the
high-profile assassinations of the Protector of Moravia & Bohemia,
Reinhard Heydrich, the Vichy French Admiral, François Darlan,
and the abduction of General Heinrich Kreipe.
In the post-war period, Speedicut is principally
concerned with uncovering Soviet spies in the British Establishment
although, along the way, he recounts the true story on which
The Third Man was based. He also reveals that he was responsible for
stealing the Duchess of Windsor's jewels, his pivotal role in the
Vassall and Profumo scandals, the true identity of the 'headless man'
in the notorious Argyll divorce case and the reason why
his memoirs were written whilst serving time
in HM Prison Ford.
"The activities of the Special Operations Executive
have been described as 'ungentlemanly warfare'
entirely because of the exploits of Charles Speedicut."
The Rt Hon Sir Winston Churchill
