Remember the Venlo Incident? It feels like a century ago that Indy covered it &#8230; Germany hadn&#8217;t even invaded the West. The Nazis and Soviets were in an alliance. It&#8217;s very meta; us covering the history of the history the we covered in the timeline when it happened.<\/p>\n<p>And yet, it&#8217;s only three years ago, but boy has a lot happened since, so imagine what it felt like back then! Imagine having to rebuild a whole national intelligence service as the war has already begun &#8230; it&#8217;s a crazy war, and it just keeps getting crazier!<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/quotulatiousness.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Screenshot-2022-02-10-at-11-33-43-MI6s-Secret-War-\u2013-WW2-\u2013-Spies-Ties-13-Quotulatiousness.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/quotulatiousness.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Screenshot-2022-02-10-at-11-33-43-MI6s-Secret-War-\u2013-WW2-\u2013-Spies-Ties-13-Quotulatiousness-480x270.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"480\" height=\"270\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-71663\" srcset=\"https:\/\/quotulatiousness.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Screenshot-2022-02-10-at-11-33-43-MI6s-Secret-War-\u2013-WW2-\u2013-Spies-Ties-13-Quotulatiousness-480x270.png 480w, https:\/\/quotulatiousness.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Screenshot-2022-02-10-at-11-33-43-MI6s-Secret-War-\u2013-WW2-\u2013-Spies-Ties-13-Quotulatiousness-150x84.png 150w, https:\/\/quotulatiousness.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Screenshot-2022-02-10-at-11-33-43-MI6s-Secret-War-\u2013-WW2-\u2013-Spies-Ties-13-Quotulatiousness-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/quotulatiousness.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Screenshot-2022-02-10-at-11-33-43-MI6s-Secret-War-\u2013-WW2-\u2013-Spies-Ties-13-Quotulatiousness.png 854w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 480px) 100vw, 480px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>World War Two Published 9 Feb 2022 Britain&#8217;s MI6 is caught off guard when war breaks out.
