    Scientia Militaria, South African Journal of Military Studies, Vol 46, Nr 1, 2018. doi: 10.5787/46-1-1224 SONDERKOMMANDO DORA – SPECIAL MILITARY GEOSCIENTIFIC UNIT OF THE GERMAN COUNTER-INTELLIGENCE SERVICE IN NORTH AFRICA 1942 Hermann Häusler University of Vienna, Austria Abstract The counter-intelligence service of the German Armed Forces High Command launched Operation Dora in 1941 to update terrain information of North Africa for the German warfare and to reconnoitre the frontier between Libya and Chad. This article presents Sonderkommando Dora as an example of military geoscientific reconnaissance during World War II in the North African theatre of war where the German Armed Forces needed more accurate military geographic information on the Western Desert. The scientific personnel comprised geographers, cartographers, geologists, astronomers, meteorologists and road specialists, and they prepared special maps on the environmental setting of the Libyan Sahara. As far as it is known, these special maps were never used by Axis troops (who fought in World War II against the Allies) for tactical purposes – although it cannot be ruled out that the maps provided general information on the proximity of the German Africa Corps, the Panzer Group Africa and of the Panzer Army Africa, respectively, and also of the retreating Army Group Africa. Introduction In January 1941, the counter-intelligence service of the German Armed Forces High Command (Oberkommando der Wehrmacht [OKW]), commanded by Admiral Wilhelm Canaris, launched Operation Dora to update terrain information of North Africa for the German warfare and to reconnoitre the frontier between Libya and Chad. Sonderkommando Dora was headed by an air force colonel, and had company status.

  • Lázló Almásy's Desert Mapping and Its Postcolonial Rewriting
    CORE Metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk Provided by Repositório Institucional da Universidade Católica Portuguesa A question of scale? Lázló Almásy’s desert mapping and its postcolonial rewriting Isabel Capeloa Gil Abstract In the wake of postcolonial studies, questions of power and space have gained pivotal significance and geography has become a powerful tool in cultural analysis. However, the simple and metaphorical use of spatial metaphors, such as the cultural appropriation of mapping and cartography, is problematic in so far as it presumes that space is not complex. The understanding of scale in this article thus does not pretend to be either simple or metaphorical, but rather it signifies a ‘circulatory site’, both a ratio used in cartographic practice and a useful tool to discuss the circulation of meaning among imperial and postcolonial discursive practices. Lázló Almásy was romanticized in Michael Ondaatje’s The English Patient as a love-driven idealist against the backdrop of the somewhat blurred movement of imperial cartographic practice. By looking at Almásy’s 1930s narratives of desert cartography (Schwimmer in der Wüste [Swimmer in the Desert] and Mit Rommels Armee in Libyen [With Rommel’s Army in Libya]), particularly the quest for the Oasis Zarzura, as well as at the articles published by the Geographical Journal of the Royal Geographical Society from 1933 to 1952, a clear-cut image of a power-driven imperial cartography arises that clashes with Ondaatje’s naive depiction. The article draws on the contradictory constellations of desert cartography to discuss the following themes: 1. the very notion of fluidity in the literary and cultural appropriation of cartography, that allows for a problematic blur between hegemony and emergence; and 2.

  • Almásy László És a Salam (Had)
    Almássy László és a SALAM (had)művelet Amerikában és főleg az Egyesült Államokban ma is a legnépszerűbb, leg-is- mertebb magyar Kossuth Lajos (lásd Várdy Béla könyvét: Az amerikai ma- gyarság élete és az óhaza, 2005). A nagyvilágban persze Puskás Öcsi neve még Kossuth Lajosénál is ismertebb. Sok helyütt tudnak Benyovszkyról is, valós vagy inkább csak vélt madagaszkári királysága folytán. Ki gondolná, hogy az „angol beteg” lassanként csatlakozhat hozzájuk. Még ha a világháborúban vitt szerepe (Rommel seregével Líbiában), illetve feltételezett „melegsége” vélhe- tően többekben bizonytalan érzéseket is támaszt személyével kapcsolatban. Hiszen az interneten a róla olvasható (angol, francia, olasz, spanyol, lengyel, orosz, sőt, arab stb. nyelvű) cikkek, információk, blogok hovatovább a legnép- szerűbb (magyar) témák közé emelik részben igaz, nagyobbrészt azonban fiktív élettörténeti mozzanatait az Ondaatje-regény és a belőle készült film nyomán (Michael Ondaatje: Az angol beteg, 1997, eredeti angol kiadás: The English Patient, 1992. A film: 1996, rendezte: Anthony Minghella). E szinte spontán reagálás-áradat láttán azonban hangsúlyozottan állít- juk, a tudománytörténet, a történelemkutatás más utakat kell, hogy bejárjon. Hiszen azt is látnunk kell, hogy folyamatosan mazsolázva az információ- rengetegben előbb vagy utóbb mégis csak előbukkannak azok a kísérletek, amelyek a látszatnál, a legendáknál, a fikciónál mélyebbre akarnak ásni a tényszerű valóság keresése céljából. Bár Almásy kiegyensúlyozott megítélése vélhetően még jó ideig váratni fog magára, életének mozaikdarabjai, tevékenységének fennmaradt nyo- mai-eredményei mind gazdagabban jutnak napvilágra. Tegyük hozzá, Almásy végül is eléggé rövidre szabott élete során sem panaszkodhatott arra, hogy nem volt sajtója, hiszen miközben a hazai új- ságok cikkeztek útjairól, három könyve is népszerűséget hozott a számára, Arnold Höllriegel (alias Arnold Richard Bermann), a bécsi zsidó újságíró egyik útjára el is kísérte, s cikkek mellett könyvet írt róla.
