June 1940. British forces have been driven from the continent by Germany and almost all of Europe is under Nazi occupation. Britain fears an invasion and fifth-column activity is rife. How could Britain hope to win the war? In July 1940, the War Cabinet set up the Special Operations Executive. Its aim was to mobilise the potential resistance in occupied Europe by fostering and supporting sabotage and subversion.
