I have sent an email to the Readers Digest asking for the article. Once they have my address I will probably be bombarded with sales pitch.

Hi David Thank you for your information. Your statement of the name I wanted being the title of a Readers Digest article fits in with my evidence. I am trying to find out details of a CIC operation in Accra. Apparently (according to the Readers Digest book I have) the British pin-pointed the site of...

The blurb on this book states Kim Philby (the English Communist spy who fled to Russia) discovered an unknown German spy working in Britain during the war - and turned him. I had doubts because the spy was not named and found an article by Nigel West claiming it is an invention. For some reason the ...

Hi Xausa

Patrick Reid has sadly passed away - I think several years ago. According to my late father, who contacted him as part of his British Legion duties, he lived at Midhurst in Sussex. If I have my facts straight I think I answered the phone to him on occasions.
