Hardy Amies was an integral part of Operation Ratweek, an assassination project developed by SOE to eliminate double agents and Nazi sympathizers in Belgium. Years later he continued to deny being any part of the matter. A spy to the very end. Do you know of any other artist types who were involved in counter espionage? Surely there must have been because it totally makes sense to use someone with a keen sense of self therefore someone who knew people through observation. Let us know in the comments please?
Jacques Cousteau was part of the French resistance, Samuel Beckett lived in Paris and worked for the French underground during the war, Gertrude Stein and Picasso had connections to the resistance. Malreaux was a fake resistance fighter, he drove around France in a WW1 French general's uniform pretending to unite the different resistance units and promising air drops from England that never materialized. His brother actually did work for them. After the war Malreaux printed his own official-looking letter heads, from fake departments virtually creating his own position in the newly forming post-war government. He was considered a great writer. Laurens Van Der Post was a spy from South Africa, Somerset Maugham played a role in espionage if I'm not mistaken. As a mathematician, Hedy Lamarr helped make frequency burst transmissions possible and frequency hopping radio signals for secrecy during the war. Ian Flemming was famously part of the SOE and has credited himself with various inventions and operations that were significant during that era. Julia Child the famous TV Chef worked for the OSS as an analyst, so she wasn't just a gourmet. Italian painter Georgio Morandi was arrested in 43' for his anti-fascist statements, (53 yrs old) and while he isn't connected to any spy networks that I can cite, he must have made Mussolini upset and to me that's worth mentioning.😂
It was rumoured that Christopher Lee played a role in the clandestine war as well: he sometimes making veiled references to that effect during interviews when he became a famous actor. But researchers with access to records have since de-bunked his claims. Besides no true operator would make any references to their secret past : Aimes was the real deal. 👍
@@tim7052 Wasn't David Niven in the SAS? or at least in the Para's? I didn't know about Mr Lee's involvement except that he was in the army in some capacity. *I get him and Peter Cushing mixed up at times.😆I think he was in the army too.
When strongly pressed to talk about his WWii work, he asked "can you keep a secret?" The man said Oh Yes. Mr. Amies replied "so can I !" That ended the interview.
There's a story I read about an English married couple in their 90s. They finally told each other about the secret work they'd done spotting German planes and reporting ... but not until then. Kept the secret even from each other for decades!
@@ziblot1235; Probably. Some operations end in total, and or, partial failure, and he probably had more than a few. It's probably tough to think about, especially if you can remember their faces.
"Ratweek" is also the name of an operation of coordinated attacks on the Axis forces' communication lines in the Balkans during World War II. Launched on 1 September 1944, the attack was led by the combined units of the Yugoslav Partisans, Land Forces Adriatic, the heavy bombers of the U.S. 15th Air Force and the light and medium bombers of the Balkan Air Force.
They say he was an unlikely spy master but it makes complete sense being how he was already hiding his identity from the public out of necessity at the time because he was gay I think this made him more capable candidate than most
Pretty sure everyone knew he was gay they just didn't use the g-word. They mention his "rather precious appearance" in his S.O.E. file at 6:30. He was just a tough S.O.B. with many skills.
Ian Fleming - the creator of James Bond - worked for Naval Intelligence during WW2. Fleming was one of the people charged with re-directing the Germans re D Day. The story of Major Martin.
@Bob-te3le maybe, maybe not. Popov was MI6 operation, Fleming was Naval Intelligence. Compartmentalisation, need to know - all huge, especially in intelligence circles.
From all accounts he was a wastrel best known for his family connections and the taking of long liquid lunches. He was not respected by his colleagues and made little or no contribution to the war effort. The people around him were the brains. The film, Operation Mincemeat, just made him look good because that helped sell tickets.
As long as it's not an American film production. They'll change Amies nationality to American and embellish the story to glorify America beyond recognition.
Time and place both play a part, though. If you were in Ukraine, Gaza, Libya, Myanmar, DRC, you could be experiencing these things this very moment. It's a more delicate balance than most people realize, some would say that we have already crossed the line into a third world war, and we just haven't had that one big defining moment to solidify it yet. I don't mean to scare you, but I do mean to convince you that it's more important than ever to vote for the left wing, wherever you are. The right wing warmongers have too much money to make on war, they'll jump in in a heartbeat. Please vote!
I've started wondering if we're living thru a "golden age". After WW II but before climate change starts making this planet uninhabitable. I'm 71, born in 1952.
When I see footage of the allies being greeted by people like we see here I always wonder how many of them were collaborators before the allies arrived.
People will do horrid things to survive. I like to think I wouldn't, but who knows? We had a "intruder" exercise in my school; police played the part. Kids were all evacuated. When we returned one asked me in front of the class if I would die to protect them. Of course I said "yes". Sighs of relief from the kids. I don't know if I would or not but I knew they needed to hear "yes".
@14mr. Francois Mitterand was on the side of the Vichy collaboration government in France until it became obvious that the Allies would win, then he switched sides and eventually became President of France. Coco Chanel was a collaborator. Tens of thousands of babies were born to French women, fathered by German soldiers, while the women's husbands were either in POW camps or in slave labour camps. The French police, named the Milice, were responsible for rounding up French Jews and sending them to the death camps. One night there was a knock at our door and an Air Raid Warden was outside with a Dutch family who were Jewish refugees. He asked my mother if we had room for them, and she said yes. They lived with us until a house was found for them and we celebrated Christmas and Hannukah. One girl came to school with me and the nuns made a big fuss of them, telling the pupils that they were brave people from Holland. I still remember her name but i can't spell it. It was Janine Drusembrut (phonetic spelling).
The two British secret service were in a battle against one another,and did not share intelligence,causing many to be captured,and executed. Even the code ,of deliberately making spelling mistakes,to indicate,the comprised radio operator, was ignored. Even today, the Russians ,had the Americans,and the USA intelligence services bluffed, as to the strength and capability of their military, and I took an underfunded Ukrainian military to expose that weakness .
@@bobpiff5161 Nothing was mentioned about the documentary not being done properly. If a film was made and not over hyped in Holywood style, then it could be a great film as it's a very interesting story.
They had no systems in place to find out if agents were turned. I find this appalling. Personally I would think 🤔 in that business you trust no one. Especially your own
@@drgunnwilliams8239 Yes, they are. While he had fled to Canada prior to WWI to avoid prosecution for rape, Prosper Dezitter had never been in the Canadian Air Force (as was claimed in the documentary) or the Royal Canadian Air Force but he had been briefly in the (British) Royal Air Force after 1918. I would imagine the reason why he used the RCAF cover during WWII was that he could pass himself off as Canadian.
ADORABLE. I enjoyed hearing Belgium was full of “Fascist sympathizers.” I think of that tabloid cover from a few decades ago with The Queen Mother, Edward VII, and the royal princesses doing that salute with their outstretched arms. Poor Hardie.
Such a interesting and informative video..Thank you..The resistance in all occupied countries did a awesome job in helping regain freedom for all.And helping Allies before during and after D-Day...
Europe must have pondered with fervency how Belgium would advance strategically and tactically after their brave but ignominious defeat in 1914, early in WW1. Whether one reads French, British or German historical accounts of 1935 through September 1-3, 1939 all agree that had Belgium worked with numerous and ongoing French requests to extend the Maginot Line through Belgium, thus sealing off Germany’s historic navigational go-around, the five week German conquest of the region would have been significantly stalled. Some hypothesize that a completed fortress line to the sea may have even altered the mid-1940 capitulation of France. We are now left with this pressing question: have lessons been learned? I strongly postulate that given the plethora of globalist, eugenicist and world government NGO’s headquartered in Belgium ,the answer is no. To be fair as an American I proffer an apology for the militant merchants of debt, inflation and undeclared wars that my nation has become. The consequences will be devastating for many generations.
This story is really great, very riveting & interesting, but the background music is a NIGHTMARE -- AWAY too loud compared to the narrator's voice level -- & "music" intruding into the storyline is also totally unnecessary!!! It's just super annoying & bloody distracting!! If u r going to copy programs like this, use proper methods so that the sound levels of EVERYthing are NOT the same!! In other words, if u feel u absolutely HAVE to hv "music," turn it T H DOWN!!!!! So effing annoying, even as I try to concentrate over it to write this!!!!!!!
er ia a problem ... And that started in France no London .. Operation Fortitude , Foritude was more than the plastic tanks more than Ratweek , Fortiude was too make Round -up later Overlord to give them the best schances . Now above the Seine 5 Soe networks collapesed 2 in Blegium one in Holland ( England spiel , was this a spiel ??) The acctack ( opertaion Jericho ) on the prison off Amiens was also part of Fortiude ( the ask Buckmeister head of Soe france did you gave the order to attack , he sad no ) second problem is when you shoot people in uniform in order off London , Belgium people will by killed ( operation Atrepod ( Heydrich ) is the example .. So this is nice on paper ..

The music doesn’t bother me one bit. I thought the subject matter was really interesting. Rather sad that a rapist and creepo survived and fluorished back then, but gay people were being imprisoned and/or killed for having consensual sex. And that's still going on today.
Was hoping there'd be mention of Flame and Citroen. This next comment might get me in trouble but, during pride week, the Gay men should be highlighting men like this rather then dancing in the streets semi clad.
Leave out the intrusive needless music/noise ffs Was this put together by kids? I mean the film is good but some idiot decided to try & make it more dramatic with intrusive noise🙄 Its a documentary ffs. Why try & turn it into an action thrills adventure Hollywood movie🤔
Repressions against irregulare warfare by the germans was not infamous or kriminal, it was guilty law recommending the geneva convention and the Haager landwarfare. And the railways in France/Belgium were destroyed bei the allies, not by the germans. Only the abandoned ports were attempted to block for a short time.

If anyone ever wonders the evolutionary mechanism for selecting homosexuality, this is the video to show them. Half the You Tube content providers I watch are gay, they've simply got more time, less to lose and are forced to be consummate in the fields of subdefuge.

Being gay is illegal at that time? In God's pure eye it's always been illegal/abominable, and they with other practicing sinners (1corinth6:9,10) will not inherit the kingdom of God.

sure, ya gotta be tough to pound turds, no room for the squeamish
Agreed. And on top of that they are still men.
In some cases there were even women resistance fighters (Hannie Schaft in NL to name 1)
--48:43, her.(queen) looks/face/appearance, reminds me of one movie but, sadly i couldn't remember the name
Both sides turned agents so why were only the allies considered to be doing legitimate work?
The end justifying the means.
Because the other side were fascists and therefore enemies of liberty.
Why are there not translations of the h guy? I think that people should know what he said so that people can recognize it

Now above the Seine 5 Soe networks collapesed 2 in Blegium one in Holland ( England spiel , was this a spiel ??)
The acctack ( opertaion Jericho ) on the prison off Amiens was also part of Fortiude
( the ask Buckmeister head of Soe france did you gave the order to attack , he sad no )
