无线电战争
In Nazi-occupied Europe, many resistance groups received help from the Allies in the form of secret agents and weapons. Contact with the home base in Britain was vital, and a trained radio operator, transmitting in Morse code from a suitcase-sized set, was a key need in any group. German detector vans cruised through town streets and country roads to try and get bearings on the clandestine transmitters.In the radio war, the great aim for the Germans was to capture the operator and force him or her to send home false messages. In the celebrated Operation North Pole, Germany's Abwehr Colonel Giskes achieved precisely this, calling for ever more supplies to be sent into Holland from Britain. In 1942-43 no fewer than 52 agents and a vast tonnage of weapons and explosives were dropped in by British aircraft, only to be netted immediately on arrival.
在纳粹党占领的欧洲，反德组织不少都获盟军支持，给与特务、武器，而为了和在英国的总部联络，这些组织不能没有受过训练的无线电报收发员，用手提箱大小的收发机，发出摩尔斯电码。德军探测车经常巡逻市镇、乡村的道路，务求侦察到隐蔽的收发机所在方位。在这场无线电战争之中，德军最希望俘虏对方的无线电报收发员，逼他们向英国发出假情报。德国反间谍部上校吉斯克斯著名的北极行动，正好做到这一点，叫英国把越来越多的补给送到荷兰，一九四二至四三年之间，至少五十二个特务以及许多公吨炸药由英国飞机投下，一着陆就落在德军手上。
