    CI in World War II 113 CHAPTER 1 Counterintelligence In World War II Introduction President Franklin Roosevelts confidential directive, issued on 26 June 1939, established lines of responsibility for domestic counterintelligence, but failed to clearly define areas of accountability for overseas counterintelligence operations" The pressing need for a decision in this field grew more evident in the early months of 1940" This resulted in consultations between the President, FBI Director J" Edgar Hoover, Director of Army Intelligence Sherman Miles, Director of Naval Intelligence Rear Admiral W"S" Anderson, and Assistant Secretary of State Adolf A" Berle" Following these discussions, Berle issued a report, which expressed the Presidents wish that the FBI assume the responsibility for foreign intelligence matters in the Western Hemisphere, with the existing military and naval intelligence branches covering the rest of the world as the necessity arose" With this decision of authority, the three agencies worked out the details of an agreement, which, roughly, charged the Navy with the responsibility for intelligence coverage in the Pacific" The Army was entrusted with the coverage in Europe, Africa, and the Canal Zone" The FBI was given the responsibility for the Western Hemisphere, including Canada and Central and South America, except Panama" The meetings in this formative period led to a proposal for the organization within the FBI of a Special Intelligence Service (SIS) for overseas operations" Agreement was reached that the SIS would act

    Pensées mili-terre Centre de doctrine et d’enseignement du commandement 1940-1945 : la Bretagne, champ d’action privilégié pour les forces spéciales cahier de la pensée mili-Terre 1 le Chef d’escadron (R) Erwan COTARD publié le 11/07/2020 Histoire & stratégie Dès 1940, mais surtout en préparation du débarquement allié de 1944, l’ensemble de la Bretagne a été le champ d’action de commandos et de résistants dans deux domaines complémentaires mais parfois difficilement conciliables: celui du renseignement, qui exige discrétion et permanence, et celui du coup de main, spectaculaire et éphémère. L’auteur nous livre un panorama très intéressant de cette période dans cette région, et conclut par un RETEX très intéressant. Au cours de la Seconde Guerre mondiale, la Bretagne est rapidement considérée comme un terrain privilégié pour l’action non conventionnelle alliée, que ce soit pour des actions de type raid ou pour des actions de forces spéciales proches de la guérilla. L’évidence de l’intérêt de sa situation géographique (proche de la Grande-Bretagne), son importante façade maritime, ses campagnes bocagères, ses villes souvent bien placées sur les axes logistiques maritimes ou ferroviaires, ou encore la présence d’implantations allemandes majeures[1], expliquent aisément cet attrait. La collecte du renseignement y fut ainsi logiquement très intensive, et ce dès 1940, mais souvent plus dans un cadre clandestin que réellement lié à l’action des forces spéciales. Pour mieux cerner notre sujet il faut tout d’abord faire un utile rappel sur la différence entre action clandestine (plutôt l’apanage des services secrets alliés, en civil et sous identité d’emprunt: le BCRA[2] gaulliste par exemple) et travail des forces spéciales en uniforme, même si la distinction a dû souvent être assez théorique sur le terrain[3]… On ne parlera pas non plus des unités à la frontière entre FS et forces conventionnelles comme les Rangers américains.

  • Brandon Flowers Reviews Every Killers Album
    :: View email as a web page :: Like all arena-lling rock bands, The Killers typically operate on a “new album every four or ve years” cycle. But the pandemic has driven them to be uncommonly prolic, with last year’s well- received Imploding The Mirage followed up almost exactly one year later with a new LP, Pressure Machine, out this week. Even Killers frontman Brandon Flowers was slightly disoriented by the back-to-back album cycles when recently reached for an interview. “I prepped myself for Imploding The Mirage interviews, I feel like, not that long ago,” he said. “I keep waiting to be asked about ‘Caution.'” Actually, I was interested in talking to him about Imploding The Mirage, as well as the rest of his band’s discography. As Flowers himself admitted during our conversation, The Killers have had plenty of ups and downs since the release of their blockbuster 2004 debut, Hot Fuss. After spinning more hits from polarizing late-aughts records like Sam’s Town and Day & Age, they seemed to have lost their mojo during the 2010s as Flowers drifted into a solo career and bandmates Dave Keuning and Mark Stoermer became essentially part-time contributors. Check our interview with Flowers where discusses the Killers discography here. -- Steven Hyden, Uproxx Cultural Critic and author of This Isn't Happening: Radiohead's "Kid A" and the Beginning of the 21st Century In case you missed it...
