Description: Count 5 and Die: How Allied Resistance leaders were deliberately sacrificed to Gestapo Torture. Wynne, Barry. NY: Ballantine Books, 1959. Paperback, 152 pages. In a London office, hundreds of Allied officers and carefully-screened civilian employees worked for months on detailed, complex plans for the coming invasion. Thousands of maps were prepared, logistical requirements calculated, loading plans drawn up for the assault vessels. Resistance leaders were smuggled in from Europe to consult with high brass. Only two men knew the real truth: ...That "Operation Stampede" was a gigantic deception. ...That one of the most "trusted" secretaries was a girl working for the Germans. ...That Allied agents were to be deliberately betrayed to the Gestapo for death by torture. Long buried in the secret files of the OSS, the true story of "Operation Stampede" reveals the blood-chilling decisions and fantastic gambles of the secret war. "One of the great untold stories of the war" - General William J. ("Wild Bill") Donovan, Director, Office of Strategic Services.
