This is the first detailed study of Britain's open source
intelligence (OSINT) operations during the Second World War,
showing how accurate and influential OSINT could be and ultimately
how those who analysed this intelligence would shape British
post-war policy towards the Soviet Union. Following the Nazi
invasion of the Soviet Union in June 1941, the enemy and neutral
press covering the German occupation of the Baltic states offered
the British government a vital stream of OSINT covering the entire
German East. OSINT was the only form of intelligence available to
the British from the Nazi-occupied Soviet Union, due to the Foreign
Office suspension of all covert intelligence gathering inside the
Soviet Union. The risk of jeopardising the fragile Anglo-Soviet
alliance was considered too great to continue covert intelligence
operations. In this book, Wheatley primarily examines OSINT
acquired by the Stockholm Press Reading Bureau (SPRB) in Sweden and
analysed and despatched to the British government by the Foreign
Research and Press Service (FRPS) Baltic States Section and its
successor, the Foreign Office Research Department (FORD). Shedding
light on a neglected area of Second World War intelligence and
employing useful case studies of the FRPS/FORD Baltic States
Section's Intelligence, British Intelligence and Hitler's Empire in
the Soviet Union, 1941-1945 makes a new and important argument
which will be of great value to students and scholars of British
intelligence history and the Second World War.
