This is a first-hand account, never before in English, of a secret
World War II mission in 1944 called Operation Salamander, in which
Tadeusz Chciuk (writing as Marek Celt) parachuted into
German-occupied Poland with the enigmatic political advisor Dr.
Jozef Retinger. The goal of the mission was to persuade the Polish
underground forces and political leadership to accept the fact that
it was imperative to start negotiating with the Soviets right away,
as they were now to be considered Poland's allies and had the full
support of the British and Americans. The story culminates in
Operation Wildhorn III, in which Chciuk and Retinger were picked up
in Poland by a British plane that landed just a short distance from
a significant detachment of German forces, and flew them to safety.
