PREVIEW: #MARKET GARDEN: #MONTGOMERY: Conversation with colleague Gregory Copley regarding the revelation in a soon-to-be-published book that Anthony Blunt, a member of the Cambridge Five and a spy catcher at MI5, discovered the details of Operation Market Garden and passed them to his NKVD handler. It is presumed that the information was then relayed to Moscow and Stalin, who may have subsequently shared it with Berlin. The discussion will explore the possibility that Stalin's motive was to prevent the Allies from crossing the Rhine and reaching Berlin before the Red Army. More details to follow later.
