Every Day in May #21
I recently read Ben Macintyre’s fascinating book about Eddie Chapman (aka, Agent Zigzag), the British double agent who was awarded the Iron Cross by Hitler for his “outstanding success.” This drawing is from a photo of Zigzag taken shortly after his landing by parachute in Cambridgeshire. He was supposed to be starting his first mission for Hitler, but instead he spent several days in MI5’s secret interrogation center trying to convince the British he was on their side.
