BRIXMIS and the Secret Cold War

Více o knize

Focusing on the covert operations of British military observers in East Germany, the narrative reveals how they navigated a repressive police state to gather crucial intelligence during the Cold War. Established under a 1946 agreement, these observers undertook daily missions in modified vehicles, documenting military activities while avoiding detection by East German authorities. Their bravery and professionalism provided NATO with vital insights into Soviet and East German forces, contributing to the delicate balance of peace until the mission's closure in 1990.
