The lacunae in my old school history books

Excerpt from:

THE HIDDEN ROLE OF CONSPIRACY

THE SECRET HISTORY OF THE UNITED STATES, 1943-1990

by L. FLETCHER PROUTY, March 1993


"On Sept 14th [1944] I flew Gen. Giles, the Middle East Commander and Gen. R.J. Smith, my ATC Wing Commander to Aleppo in northern Syria. The Generals met with British commanders there and discussed plans for the arrival of that freight train. They told me there was a large, unprepared landing ground north of Aleppo near the Turkish border. The plan was to return on the 15th with enough aircraft to carry all 750 men to Cairo.

I returned to Cairo that evening and ordered the preparation of more than thirty transports. Some were to have doctors and nurses. We left early the next morning and I led the flight to that open field near the Turkish border and the railroad. We landed and waited. Finally the freight train arrived and was stopped by the British. Immediately our POW's leaped from those cars and ran to our planes, except for many who had been injured.

On the return flight to Cairo, I went back and talked with many of the men who had been shot down in air raids on the Ploesti oil fields. Among the group of men on my plane I noticed several who were not Americans. I spoke with some of them. They were Balkans, mostly Rumanians who had been selected by the OSS for this escape from the approaching Russians. They were Nazi intelligence experts.

When we arrived in Cairo, there were a number of buses there for these extra men. We learned from the POW's that they were Nazis and Pro- Nazi Rumanians who had been working on Anti-Soviet intelligence for the Germans. They were recruited by the OSS for future use, after the German surrender, to provide valuable intelligence about the Soviets and the East European regions of the Balkans.

This was astounding. As far as I know this was the first act of its kind, i.e. pro-Nazi and anti-Communist of that period. It was the first step into the Cold War that followed almost immediately after the surrender of the Germans, and while we were still active partners of the Soviets.

We now know that a large number of Nazi intelligence agents were selected from many parts of Germany. Knowledge of these contacts spread to the highest offices of the Nazi government coalescing those who would break with Hitler. This OSS action created an inner circle of "favored" Nazis, and began a new movement within Germany designed to separate the alliance between the British and Americans with the Soviets."

Can't say we are not warned.
Read not to contradict and confute;
nor to believe and take for granted;
nor to find talk and discourse;
but to weigh and consider.
