Añadir al carritoPaperback. Condición: New. Behind Enemy Lines: The War Memoirs of Jedburgh Officer John OlmstedStep into World War II through the memoir of OSS agent John Olmsted, a member of Jedburgh Team 'Dudley.' Parachuted into occupied Holland in September 1944, Olmsted and his comrades-Dutch officer Henk Brinkgreve and Irish radio operator John 'Bunny' Austin-were tasked with organizing resistance in Over?ssel to support Operation Market Garden.A Story of War and SurvivalAfter the Allied defeat at Arnhem, the team found themselves stranded behind enemy lines. Collaborating closely with the Dutch Resistance, they faced immense challenges as they worked to evade capture and continue their mission. Olmsted's account culminates in his participation in Operation Pegasus 2, an ambitious escape effort where only 7 soldiers, including Olmsted, successfully crossed the Rhine to safety, while hundreds of trapped airborne soldiers attempted to evade capture.Life in Occupied HollandWritten shortly after the war, Olmsted's observations provide a detailed personal diary of the fall of 1944 in the Netherlands. Through his writing, readers gain insight into the day-to-day efforts of the Resistance and the personal impact of war, including the loss of his teammates Brinkgreve and Austin, who were executed just before Liberation.A Historical PerspectiveIn 1985, Olmsted entrusted his manuscript to historian Dr. Coen Hilbrink, whose family had sheltered him during the war. Hilbrink added context to Olmsted's writing, enriching the manuscript with historical annotations about the Over?ssel Resistance and its broader significance during the war. This collaboration preserves Olmsted's account as both a personal memoir and a valuable historical document.About the AuthorDr. Coen Hilbrink is a Dutch historian who was born in Almelo in 1944, during the German occupation. Tragically, shortly after his birth, his father and grandfather were executed by the Sicherheitsdienst. Hilbrink earned his doctorate in 1989 with a dissertation on the sociological backgrounds of the Resistance in eastern Over?ssel during World War II. His expertise and personal connection to this period add depth to Behind Enemy Lines.About the Jedburgh TeamsOperation Jedburgh was a World War II mission involving three-person teams from Allied forces, including the British SOE, American OSS, and the Free French. These teams were parachuted into occupied France, the Netherlands, and Belgium to support the Allied advance by working with local resistance groups. Their efforts included sabotage, guerrilla warfare, and leadership of resistance forces against German occupation. Team 'Dudley,' to which John Olmsted belonged, was one of these units.

It follows them on the run, hiding, in captivity and in some cases in death.They were Britons, Canadians, New Zealanders and Americans.

Some endured the harsh life in a POW camp, while in one case an airman even ended up in Buchenwald concentration camp. Those who died now rest at various cemeteries in France.This is a tribute to aircrew who were forced down and evaded capture. It also honours those who died and those who endured a long time as prisoners of war.

Añadir al carritoPaperback. Condición: New. 'Behind Enemy Lines', American OSS agent John Olmsted tells the fascinating story of his experiences as a member of Jedburgh Team 'Dudley', which dropped into occupied east Netherlands on 11/12 September 1944. Together with his two comrades, Dutch officer Henk Brinkgreve and Irish radio operator John 'Bunny' Austin, Olmsted's mission was to help organize the armed resistance in Overijssel supporting the Allied advance during Operation Market Garden, which started 6 days later. Following the Allied defeat at Arnhem, Olmsted and his team were trapped behind enemy lines. John Olmsted was one of the few Allied soldiers who managed to escape with Operation Pegasus 2 across the Rhine to liberated territory after the Battle of Arnhem. He vividly wrote about his experiences in Overijssel and Gelderland on the boat trip back to the USA shortly after the end of the war. Olmsted's first person account allows us to see one of the most shocking episodes in Dutch history through the eyes of a young American officer. These are the perspectives of an outsider, who is simultaneously at the center of events. With warmth, humor and an eye for detail, he grants us a fascinating glimpse into occupied Holland in the fall of 1944. John Malcolm Olmsted (1914-2001) returned to the Netherlands in 1985. During this visit, he handed over a manuscript to historian Dr. Coen Hilbrink, whose family had sheltered Olmsted in 1944, with tragic consequences. Hilbrink added annotations, highlighting the harrowing experiences of the Overijssel Resistance and the tragic fate of Olmsted's fellow team members. Brinkgreve and Austin did not survive the war; both were executed in 1945, just weeks before the Liberation. The manuscript was edited as minimally as possible, preserving Olmsted's unique perspective as both an observer and a participant, making it a distinctive historical document.
