Imagínense el horror: Un día de mayo de 1941 que no presagiaba nada especial, un chico de un pequeño pueblo de Creta se enfrenta a una amenaza inesperada — la invasión de las tropas alemanas. Corre a ponerse a cubierto — su primer encuentro en una serie de reuniones con el destino.
Imagínense la aventura: El niño y su hermano trabajan en nombre de la SOE, un núcleo secreto de la inteligencia británica. Cuando la organización patriótica entra en la mirilla con foco de cruz de los alemanes, recurren inmediatamente en las montañas de Creta, donde, incluso durante el día, se esconden del enemigo. El peligro acecha a cada paso.
Imagínense la grandeza: El niño está capacitado para convertirse en un espía de la OSS u Oficina de Servicios Estratégicos (Office of Strategic Services, el recién de la SOE central estadounidense: Ejecutivo de Operaciones Especiales (Special Operations Executive).
Imagínense el riesgo: Durante una misión secreta en Tesalónica, el soldado-espía corre el riesgo de perder su vida diariamente, operando una radio bajo las narices de los Nazis. ¿Se dará cuenta, eventualmente, la policía alemana?
Imagínense el valor: Si le detienen, el soldado-espía va a tragar una píldora de veneno para evitar sufrir horriblemente bajo tortura. Muchas veces su escape es cuestión de segundos.
Imagínense la Victoria de vivir a los 92 años a decir su historia.
Todo es verdad! La imaginación está superada. Se podría decir que es un guión hecho para una película — una historia protagonizada por el juego de la vida que es necesario que la lean todos.
La historia del autor, junto con las historias de otros agentes, fue el tema del documental “Campo X: Agente Escuela Secreta”, una producción de YAP Films, que emitió The History Channel en Canadá, así como en otras redes en todo el mundo.
