SOE headquarters plans Operation Postmaster — a deniable mission to seize a German vessel from a neutral Spanish harbour in West Africa.
The SOE (Special Operations Executive) was founded in July 1940 on Churchill's order to 'set Europe ablaze.' Its headquarters at 64 Baker Street coordinated agents across occupied Europe and beyond. Operation Postmaster was planned by Brigadier Colin Gubbins and personally approved by Churchill — who was kept informed via an unofficial back-channel.
