A very interesting historical figure


Ran intel on the Eastern Front for the Wehrmacht General Staff, turned his priceless Soviet/Eastern European archives over intact to the Americans, became the 'indispensable man' in West Germany, set up the West German Intelligence service.

Brought down because he had staffed a number of turned officers, including SS, who had been gotten to during Soviet captivity.

The doc is very much worth seeing.
