ABSTRACT

Early in November 1940, the dashing young Daniel Lomenech began what was to prove a long and brilliant involvement in intelligence-gathering and clandestine sea operations to wartime Brittany. He landed on a beach at Rospico between Raguenès and Port-Manech from an elderly and rather nondescript Lorient trawler named Le-Grec, which had been added to Dunderdale’s Mylor flotilla. She was considerably larger and more comfortable than Rouanez-ar-Peoc’h, but she adopted the latter’s name and registration number because it was felt that Germans would find it more difficult to remember a Breton name accurately. He was accompanied by another agent working for Dunderdale, Jean Milon. They were to be picked up a month later.1
