ABSTRACT
British intelligence activity in Greece during the Second World War is a subject which has received little attention. The focus of interest in wartime Greece has centred on the guerrilla operations mounted by the two principal resistance groups and their British liaison officers. The guerrilla war has eclipsed other aspects of the history of Occupied Greece, and British intelligence activity, if addressed at all, has been subsumed within works dealing with guerrilla operations. There have been many memoirs written by those who participated in the guerrilla war, and these have received wide readership among historians interested in the internecine warfare between the Greek guerrilla bands from 1942 to 1944, and the anti-Communist war which followed.1
