Now there’s some irony for you. One of the most radical, far left states in the country that is always finding new ways to suppress freedom at every opportunity is honoring an original freedom-fighter.
It is possible what we have here is a case of another ‘Intrepid’ where the author William Stevenson did spend hours with his subject Sir William Stephenson ‘interviewing’ him about all the no records, eyes only operations he ran in W#W2. Unfortunately Stephenson was virtual senile at the time of the ‘interviews’. These seemed to consist of Stevenson saying things such as; ‘Now Sir William, you were involved with both capturing a German Enigma Machine and thwarting the Nazi A-bomb, were you not?’ Sir William, a bit dazed and sleepy “Uh-Huh, ah yes.”
Sir William was an important figure in British intelligence but he was not Winston Churchill's alter ego being played by James Bond. So this man may well have been someones personal slave who did go to war with his master. There were quite a few of those in the WBTS. By being a slave he would not appear on any muster role. If true, he was an old man when this ghosted memoir appeared and the hack who put it together could easily of ‘hotted it up’ as they said in the 19th century by adding lots of fake action. This is a case that deserves close attention and would be great if found to be only partially true.
