Operation Jungle
Operation Jungle was a program by the British Secret Intelligence Service (MI6) early in the Cold War (1948–1955) for the clandestine insertion of intelligence and resistance agents into Poland and the Baltic states. The agents were mostly Polish, Estonian, Latvian and Lithuanian exiles who had been trained in the UK and Sweden and were to link up with the anti-Soviet resistance in the occupied states (the Cursed soldiers, the Forest Brothers). The naval operations of the program were carried out by the Royal Navy and German crewmembers of the German Mine Sweeping Administration. The American-sponsored Gehlen Organization also got involved in the draft of agents from Eastern Europe. However, the KGB penetrated the network and captured or turned most of the agents.
