"(Operation Mincemeat was) perhaps the most successful single deception operation of the entire war." - Historian, Michael Howard

In the morning hours of April 30, 1943, during World War ll, a local Spanish fisherman named Antonio Rey Maria spotted a soldier's body in the waters. Antonio reported his discovery to the proper authorities, and Spanish soldiers soon arrived to take the body away.

The body was found with a briefcase containing classified files on a future Allied invasion.

German spies in Spain secretly passed the documents' information on to the Nazis who marveled at their incredible luck in obtaining such a document. However, what the Nazis didn't know was that this was all part of the elaborate plan called Operation Mincemeat, one of the greatest military deceptions ever achieved.

Read this short novella to learn about the brilliant plan of how two Allied officers used a single corpse to fool Hitler and eventually lead to the Nazis' defeat!
