Switzerland is a fascinating and integral part of the espionage war in this wider conflict. Having said that, we know this title probably won’t get much clicks. That is the reality of publishing to YouTube. But we’re doing it anyway because this project is first and foremost here to create an educational resource, so join the TimeGhost Army to make this all possible.
