With minimal command of English and little formal education, he enlisted in the Army and quickly found himself assigned to operations where his German language abilities were put to use. With the Soviet Union's emergence as a potential adversary, Thamm was recruited into the Army's clandestine services, where he operated as a secret agent in Germany, under multiple identities. This richly detailed personal narrative tells Thamm's incredible story (with more than two dozen photographs and sketches).Language: EnglishGenre: BiographyISBN-10: 0786448547Country/Region of Manufacture: USItem Height: 229mmItem Length: 152mmItem Width: 12mmItem Weight: 308gAuthor: Gerhardt B.
