Publisher's Synopsis

Major General Mieczyslaw Slowikowski, codenamed Rygor, was a Polish intelligence officer in World War II. He masterminded the first joint Allied military operation involving both the Americans and the British, the first large scale Allied landings of the war, and his extraordinary intelligence enabled Operation Torch, the successful allied invasion of North Africa and the prototype of the D-Day landings. His immense bravery and effort were later rewarded with the American Legion of Merit. This is his extraordinary story.
