'Charles Kennedy' parachuted into a moonlit Austrian forest and
searched frantically for his lost radio set. His real name was Leo
Hillman and he was a Jewish refugee from Vienna. He was going home.
Men and women of Churchill’s secret Special Operations Executive
worked to free Austria from Hitler's grip. Many were themselves
Austrians who had fled Nazi persecution. Trained and equipped by
SOE, they courageously returned to their homeland. Some died in the
attempt. Their moving stories are part of the history of how
Austria recovered her sovereignty. With a Foreword by Michael
Zimmermann, Austrian Ambassador to the United Kingdom.
