Opis

Polish agents at the stately home undertook a series of arduous training courses in guerrilla warfare before being parachuted into occupied Europe. In 1943, Audley End was placed exclusively under Polish control, a situation unique within SOE. The taining was tough and the success rate low, but a total of 527 agents passed thorough Audley End between 1942 and 1944
