http://www.801492.org/MainMenu.htm
http://www.801492.org/Air%20Crew/Crewz.htm
I was informed that Thomas Ensminger passed away on the 03/05/2012. I like to underline the huge work performed as historian by
Thomas to keep alive the memory the Carpetbaggers’ history and their famous B24D modified and painted in glossy black. RIP
Thomas.
The USAAF Carpetbagger's mission was that of delivering supplies and agents to resistance groups in the enemy occupied Western
European nations. Created in late 1943, their operations first flew from Tempsford, then Alconbury and finally out of Station 179,
Harrington (9.0 km West of Kettering in Northamptonshire). Flying at first as two squadrons, they were given Provisional status as a
Bombardment Group (801st) in late March 1944 just before they moved to Harrington. In May of 1944 two more squadrons were added
to the group. In August of 1944, the group was redesignated as a formal group (492nd).
Squadron designations were changed as well, becoming as follows for the duration of the war:
- 36th BS changed to 856th BS
- 406th BS changed to 858th BS
- 788th BS changed to 859th BS
- 850th BS changed to 857th BS
Over five hundred members of the BCRA, Jedburghs, OSS, Proust, SAS, SIS, SOE and Sussex agents were inserted by the
Carpetbaggers during the period of March 1944 through April of 1945.
Most of mission reports of Carpetbaggers’ crews can be downloaded from the Thomas Ensminger’s huge data bank
(http://www.801492.org/Air%20Crew/Crewz.htm).
NB: The whole Carpetbaggers’crew mission reports were kindly provided by Thomas Ensminger.
There is a Carpetbaggers museum located near Harrington (Northamptonshire – Great Britain):

5. History of the RAF squadrons:


The two Bob Body’s websites related to RAF 138 and 161 Squadrons on website addresses:
http://www.tempsford-squadrons.info/
http://www.161squadron.org/
There were two RAF No 138 and 161 Special Duties Squadrons based at Tempsford airfield (3.7 km north east of Sandy,
Bedfordshire). Both were involved in these highly secret operations, that ranged over all of enemy occupied Europe, dropping agents
or supplies. Losses were very high, with up to one aircraft per week being lost at some points during the war. Missions were
concentrated on the "moon nights" of each month at the beginning, where a full moon allowed for better night vision for the pilots.
Since 1943, location device Rebecca (Plane) / Eureka (DZ), http://www.iwm.org.uk/collections/item/object/1060003707 ,was used
whatever the weather.
NB : Some mission reports of RAF 138, 161 and 1419 Sqn were kindly provided by Bob Body.
NB2 : Steven Kippax kindly provided some archives (Air 40/2659 – Air resources made available to SIS) concerning the 106
SIS pick-up operations carried out by RAF 161 Squadron.
NB3: Mail bags fastened to an horizontal cable located at 2 metre heigh were pickep up by Lysanders by means of hook
during special night operations called MPU (Mail Pick Up)
NB4: In December 1943, RAF 138 and 161 squadrons were joined by 214 and 617; in February 1944 by 90 and 149; in March
by 75, 199, 295*, 296*, 297* and 298*; and in April by 570*, 644*, 190* and 299* in which month USAAF units also started
Special Duties. Units marked* were part of 38 Group and operated in pairs:- 190+620, 196+299, 298+644, 295+570 and
296+297.

The Ron McKeon’s website, taken over by Lee Miller in August 2015, describes the history of the RAF 624 Squadron
operating from Blida (Algeria):
http://www.624squadron.org/missions.html
Ron McKeon passed away on 25/07/2015. I like to underline the huge work performed by Ron to let us know the anonymous exploits
of the RAF 624 Squadron crews.

http://web.archive.org/web/20060421211454/freespace.virgin.net/arthur.brown2/index.htm
The name JEDBURGH comes from a small town of Scotland. JEDBURGH was a special forces operation carried out by the Allied
during WWII, which aimed to coordinate the action of the Resistance with the general plans of the Supreme Headquarters Allied
Expeditionary Forces (SHAEF) and to provide weapons and training to the Resistance, in France, in Belgium and in the Netherlands, in
order to prevent the German to reinforce the Normandy coasts at the time of D-Day. Men of the British Special Operations Executive
(SOE), of the American Office of Strategic Services (OSS), and of Free French Bureau Central de Renseignements and d’Action
(BCRA) as well as soldiers of the various armies of the countries concerned (France, Belgium, Netherlands) were parachuted in
uniform (Some teams were dropped in civilian clothes such as Arnold Team), by teams of three, behind the German lines, to lead
actions of sabotage and guerrilla against the Germans, and to coordinate actions of the Resistance.
About 100 Jedburgh teams were dropped into France, Belgium and Holland between June and December 1944.
Jed Nationalities dispatched into France:
British: 91 Jed
French: 108 Jed
USA: 77 Jed
Canadian: 2 Jed

9. The Tripartite SUSSEX Plan (US/OSS, GB/MI6 and FR/BCRA) and Bipartite PROUST Plan (US/OSS and FR/BCRA)
Dominique Soulier (son of Georges Soulier former radio-operator of the Ossex / OSS Vis team) is at the origin of the website Sussex
Plan 1944 and of the collection presented by the "MM Park" museum in La Wantzenau.
http://www.plan-sussex-1944.net/
http://mmpark.fr/index.php?p=sussex

Sussex Teams (January - September 1944): SUSSEX Plan was an intelligence operation in World War II in which men from the
French Intelligence Bureau Central de Renseignements and d'Action (BCRA) were dropped into France from January to September
1944. (See Memories of a Free French Secret Agent written by Gilbert Renault aka Rémy aka Roulier).
Commander Kenneth Cohen for SIS (England), Colonel Francis Pickens Miller for OSS (USA) and Gilbert Renault (Rémy) for BCRA
(France) were in charge of the SUSSEX Plan.
Each of the 54 SUSSEX teams (29 OSSEX, 25 BRISSEX teams) of an officer and a WT operator. (118 men and 2 women) to supply
update, independent, reliable and accurate information to the Allied Head Quarters in order to take the relevant decisions.
After the war the surviving agents used to meet for a monthly reunion dinner at Madame Goubillon's café, located 8 rue Tournefort in
the 5th arrondissement, which they painted and renamed “Café du Network Sussex”. Sadly the cafe is no more, Madame Goubillon
died in the 1980s and the premises were transformed into a piano bar. In 1990, however, the mayor of the fifth arrondissement
unveiled a plaque commemorating the role the cafe and its owner played during the war.

The WT operators of Sussex/Brissex teams reported to SIS station STS 53a or STS 53b and the WT operators of Sussex/Ossex to
OSS station Victor.

The "Carpetbaggers" infiltrated about 49 SUSSEX agents and the RAF 59. Most of Carpetbaggers’ operations had names of car
manufacturers: Ansaldo, Bentley, Benz, Cord, Desoto, Ellis, Lincoln, Plymouth, etc.
The Sussex Teams had 15 members killed or missing including a woman Evelyne Clopet.
Jacques Voyer received the Cross of the Liberation.

Proust PLan (February – September 1944): An auxiliary joint operation only conducted by French BCRA and US OSS to the Sussex
plan to build up a reserve pool of agents for any unforeseen exigencies of the post D-Day period and eventually became operational.
Each Proust agent was trained as W/T operator and intelligence observer agent.
The volume 4 “Secret Intelligence Branch - PROUST” of roll n°4 of « History of the London Office of the OSS » ref: M-1623 of
NARA gave some information concerning the Plan PROUST, but unfortunately the agents’ reports are missing (pages 51 to 188).
The PROUST missions were: Driver/Ascain, Monkey, Girafe, Midiron (sub-missions: Norman, Noël, Potage, Noir, Congé, Poil, Jument
and Maréchal), Jambon, Mirnaloy, Voyageur, Bebe, Chat, Image, Marquise and Marcel.

(Military Museum Park).
This museum is situated in La Wantzenau (12 km North of Strasbourg), presents on 7000m2 a very big variety of artefacts and
equipments of among which 120 military and armoured vehicles, uniforms, individual and collective weapons, artillery and also a
renovated Luftwaffe 20 m, U-Boot coning tower, underwater mine, or more, visits of an observation Atlantic Wall bell via an
underground corridor.

(Parachutes, Plane & Sea Landings)
Special Operations Executive (SOE): The Special Operations Executive (SOE), sometimes referred to as "the Baker Street
Irregulars" after Sherlock Holmes's fictional group of spies, was a World War II organization. It was initiated by Winston Churchill and
Hugh Dalton on the 19/07/1940 to conduct warfare by means other than direct military engagement.
The organisation was formed out of three existing secret departments:
o Section D, a sub-section of the Secret Intelligence Service (SIS, aka MI6) commanded by Major Lawrence Grand;
o A department of the War Office known as MI R headed by Major J. C. Holland;
o Department EH, the propaganda organisation called (from Electra House, its headquarters), run by Sir Campbell Stuart.
SOE directly employed or controlled just over 13,000 people. It is estimated that, worldwide, SOE supported or supplied
about a million operatives.
SOE's operations in France were directed by six London-based country sections:
o AMF Section was established in Algiers during the latter part of 1942 to operate into Southern France.
o DF Section was responsible for establishing escape routes.
o EU/P which dealt with the Polish community in France
o F Section was under British control (Colonel Maurice Buckmaster). In France, there were 95 circuits “Buck”. By the terms
of an agreement made with De Gaulle SOE F could not recruit French agents. (Buckmaster Maurice – They Fought Alone
– page 95)
o RF Section (Cptaine Erik Piquet-Wicks replaced by James Hutchinson since August 1942 then by Bickham Sweet-Escott
since Autumn 1943 then by LH Dismore, helped by Forest Yeo-Thomas) was linked to General De Gaulle's Free French
government in exile. Most native French agents served in RF.
o Jedburgh teams.
SOE was formed to “co-ordinate, to inspire, to control and to assist the nationals of the oppressed countries who must themselves be
the direct participants”.
From 1941 to 1945, SOE organized about 3733 parachute landings and 81 pick-up operations (Lysander, Hudson or Dakota) into
France:
- About 470 SOE agents, including 39 women, were sent out into France. Among Section F, a monument in Valençay is
dedicated to 104 of whom were killed in action or executed (13 women), 30 escaped and 12 were released. They were
“closely harnessed to the military effort” and “played a very considerable part in our complete and final victory.”
- 5 007 000 kg of equipment including 104 536 Sten submachine guns, 409 224 grenades and 307 023 kg of explosives were
dropped.
SOE F section disbanded on January 15, 1946, with many of its agents moving to MI6.
SOE was known publicly by a cover name: the Inter-Services Research Bureau (ISRB)
The SOE F Section Memorial of Valençay (Indre - France) was inaugurated on 6th May 1991, the fiftieth anniversary of the despatch of
F Section's first agent to France, by Monsieur André Méric, Secretary of State for Veteran Affairs, in the presence of Her Majesty
Queen Elizabeth The Queen Mother. The Valençay monument commemorates by name 91 men and 13 women, all agents of F
Section of S.O.E., who lost their lives - most of them in concentration camps - as a result of their work with the French Resistance.
