The Probable Murder of General Sikorski (and Ongoing British Obstruction of Justice). A Captured German V2 Rocket–A Spectacular Polish Intelligence Coup

This work consists of numerous, separate chapters, each of which describes a particular event. Topics include Operation Sea Lion (details given on the planned German invasion of England in 1940), the Czech-partisan assassination of Reinhard Heydrich, the D-Day deception (which fooled Germans as to the locations of the Allied landings), the Battle of Kursk in detail, the Soviet-betrayed Polish Warsaw Uprising of 1944, the German commandos during the Battle of the Bulge, the mythical Bavarian redoubt towards the end of the European war, and much more.

THE DEATH OF GENERAL WLADYSLAW SIKORSKI–NO ACCIDENT

This work provides seldom-told information regarding the probable murder of General Wladyslaw Sikorski in an airplane crash on Gibraltar on July 4, 1943. It turns out that there had been earlier attempts on his life. While halfway across the Atlantic in March 1942, an incendiary bomb—the kind used by the RAF to destroy a plane’s contents if it is about to fall into enemy hands—was found under a sleeping bag. The Pole who found it belatedly claims to have planted it, and done so in order to “alert the authorities as to the possibility of an attempt on Sikorski’s life”. He is declared insane. The plot thickens. Soon thereafter, this man is run over by a vehicle, in broad daylight, and killed. (pp. 320-321).

Later that year (November 1942), Sikorski flies again to North America. As his airplane takes off from Montreal, the engines suddenly stall. The pilot manages to keep control, and soft crash-lands the plane. Sikorski, only slightly injured, suspects sabotage. (pp. 321-323).

Then comes the Katyn revelation in spring 1943. The Soviets, emboldened by recent military victories, become more overt in their hostility to a future sovereign Poland. Sikorski is seen more and more as a nuisance in Soviet-western relations. Sikorski’s assassins are finally successful on what appears to be their third try. Again, the plot thickens. Kim Philby, a British Communist serving the Soviets, was in charge of the Gibraltar area at the time. (p. 332). No post-mortem is allowed on Sikorski’s body. (p. 333). Douglas F. Martin, the sole eyewitness to the plane crash, is not questioned. It turns out that security measures had not been enforced before the fateful flight. Oddly enough, a piece of luggage is found on the runway at the spot where the engines of the plane had been tested before the flight. (p. 336). And so on.

THE ONGOING BRITISH OBSTRUCTION OF JUSTICE

Here we are, 75 years later. The British refuse to declassify their materials on Sikorski’s death. What are they still hiding?

OPERATION WILDHORN: POLISH SPIES CAPTURE A FALLEN GERMAN V2 ROCKET

This work elaborates on the unmasking of the German V-2 rocket project. Poles provide the intelligence data on their manufacture at Peenemunde. (p. 408-on). The British bomb the place, and German rocketry is thereby set back several months. The Germans relocate their rocket testing to occupied Poland, then out of range of British planes. Polish intelligence tracks these developments. (p. 434-on). A crashed V-2 rocket near Blizna is hidden, recovered, and—in what must be one of the greatest intelligence thrillers of all time—its steering mechanism is shipped through an eventually-arriving Dakota plane (July 26, 1944) which—worthy of the drama of a movie—encounters repeated difficulties taking off in the mud just as the nearby Germans are closing in. (pp. 441-443). Two days later, the precious cargo is safely in London.
