It’s 1943. The Allies are determined to break Hitler’s grip on occupied Europe, and plan to launch an all-out assault on Sicily; but they face an impossible challenge - how to protect the invasion force from potential annihilation.
It falls to two remarkable intelligence officers, Ewen Montagu and Charles Cholmondeley to dream the most inspired and improbable disinformation strategy of the war - centred on the most unlikely of secret agents: a dead man.
Operation Mincemeat is the extraordinary and true story of an idea that hoped to turn the tide for the Allies - taking impossibly high risks, defying logic, and testing the nerves of its creators to breaking point.

by: Michael K.
This is a true story based on a book and kept secret.
It is a fascinating story of how the Allies fooled the Germans in 1943 and, because of the success of this deception, shortened the end of WW2.
Highly recommended as it is a factual and a historical account of the creative genius and dedication of men and women in their collective efforts to win the war.
