    The OSS was the acronym of the Criminals In Action at one time.
    Hang on to the old Grundig and CB radios.

    “Rubs shoulders with the enemy one day and rubs him out the next”
    Classic quote.

    Fascinating video! That wire recorder was something I’ve never heard of before, so I had to research it.

    Very neat old technology with some realist applications still in use today regarding antenna transmitting directions and the use of that little folding dipole on the Joan transmitter. Quite the peek into old school cold war era intel.

    Thanks for sharing that!
