You would want to be a secret agent during world war 2

70 years ago, when Germany conquered France, the refugees went to america to become spies. Now the interviewers were interested in language skills. When I say Language skills, I don’t just mean speaking many languages. I mean knowing how to crack a specific code. I don’t know what kind of code. Despite their interest, they didn’t let germans in, because they thought they were double agents. You know how that can be. Of course this war didn’t bother England, until the germans got closer. When France lost, the war over for them. Their fighting spirits were rock hard. Which is why the refugees went to England. That leads to the agent stuff.

I give this book five stars, because it was very knowledge on this subject, and it was very interesting to read. It had great illustrations as well. The book gave good details on all the different weapons they used during world war two, and all the secret handshakes and hiding places that agents used. Some agents used fake logs and fruit to hide ammunition and other small items. I think that’s pretty clever. They had spigot guns, noiseless guns, sleeve guns, explosive rats, etc. Agents learned how to fight and make their own bombs at a training program, if they passed it, then they would be sent to a paramilitary school in northern Scotland. And that's where they learn how to become real secrete agents.

This book talks about why you wouldn't want to be a secret agent during world war two. You would have to be willing to give up your life to become one. During your training you learn how to pick locks, how to create your own bombs, how to live with nature, how to send Morse code messages, and so on. You learn how to use all these different guns, and how to set booby traps. It sure must a lot to become a secret agent, I know that I wouldn't want to be one. ( )
