Behind Enemy Lines

SPIES, PROPAGANDA WORKERS, AND THOSE WHO WORKED FOR THE ENEMY

If I were making arrangements for an ideal war, I would insist that no women were permitted in forward areas. Regardless of the gallantry and dedication of individual women, the injection of sex into a wartime situation establishes an intolerable obstacle to discipline, without which not much of anything can be achieved.1

OLIVER CALDWELL, Office of Strategic Services agent, from his book, A Secret War: Americans in China, 1944-1945
