This book investigates the role played by William Donovan, the OSS
mission in London and the Carpetbaggers, the US Squadron which was sent
to RAF Tempsford to be trained by the 'Moon Squadrons' before
undertaking their own missions from Harrington. Not only does it
describe the work of pilots and crew members, it also details some of
the missions and gives insight into their social life. It includes the
story of Owen Johnson and Elizabeth Devereaux Rochester, the first
American agents to be parachuted into France, and Juup Kappius, Hilde
Meisel and Ann Bayer, the first OSS agents to be sent into Germany
before the invasion.
