SUMMARY:Churchill’s Secret Armies in WWII presented by Historian David Barrett
DESCRIPTION:This two-part series explains how\, with Churchill’s support\, the British efforts at\ndestroying the Nazi tyranny of World War Two\, resulted in the victory of the Allies in\n1945. \nIn particular\, we examine the formation of a very secret organization\, the Special\nOperations Executive\, SOE\, and some examples of specific operations that took place\nin occupied Europe. This involved intelligence gathering and sabotage that gave\nsupport to the resistance in those occupied countries. \nPart 1 explains the history of the intelligence services in Britain and the formation of the\nSpecial Operations Executive and Part 2 covers several of the various operations that\ntook place during SOE’s existence.\nDavid Barrett lived in London during the London Blitz and was 6 years old when World\nWar Two finished. \nPart 1 – Friday\, May 8\, 2026 at 2:00pm: \nThe history of the intelligence services in Britain and the formation of the Special Operations Executive \nPart 2 – Saturday May 9\, 2026 at 1:00pm: \nCovers several of the various operations that took place during SOE’s existence. \nFor more information or to register for these events\, please contact Amy Wolfe at awolfe@clamsnet.org or by calling the OVL directly at (508)428-5757
