James Bond based on a ..... yes you guessed right Serb:P
« on: January 15, 2008, 12:41:04 PM »
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tricycle_%28spy%29



Popov was a young, wealthy Serbian businessman, who managed to continue a playboy existence while carrying out perilous wartime missions for the United Kingdom. He spoke fluent German and had many highly placed German friends, but he secretly despised the Nazis for invading his country.

Signed up as a spy by anti-Hitler Abwehr agents early in the war, Popov, according to their plan, immediately offered his services to the United Kingdom. He was accepted as a double agent (codenamed Tricycle) and came to live in London. His international business activities provided cover for visits to neutral Portugal, which was linked to the United Kingdom by a weekly civil air service for most of the war. There Popov fed enough MI5-approved information to the Germans to keep them happy, and was well paid for his services. The assignments they gave him were of great value to the British in assessing enemy plans and thinking.


In 1941 Popov was dispatched to the United States by the Abwehr, to establish a new German network in the US. He was given ample funds and an intelligence questionnaire, a list of intelligence targets. This questionnaire was later published as an appendix to J.C. Masterman's book The Double Cross System. Of the three typewritten pages of the questionnaire, one entire page was devoted to highly detailed questions about U.S. defenses at Pearl Harbor on the Hawaiian island of Oahu. He made contact with the FBI and explained what he had been asked to do. For whatever reason, either the FBI chief J. Edgar Hoover did not report this fact to his superiors; or his superiors, for reasons of their own, took no action in regard to this apparent German interest in Pearl Harbor. Popov himself has said that Hoover was quite suspicious and distrustful of him, and according to author William "Mole" Wood, when Hoover discovered that Popov had taken a woman from New York to Florida he threatened to have him arrested under the Mann Act if he did not leave the U.S. immediately.

In 1944 Popov became a key part of the Operation Fortitude deception campaign. However his usefulness was compromised when his German intelligence handler (who was also a double agent and knew of Popov's control by the British) was arrested. Fearing that Popov was betrayed, the British no longer gave critical information to him to pass along. However after time passed and no indication of any distrust of Popov was discernable he was brought back into use.


Popov was a noted ladies' man - while in the US he lived an extravagant lifestyle and dated a well-known actress, Simone Simon. His earlier codename "Scout" was changed to "Tricycle" when he appointed two sub agents ("Balloon" and "Gelatine"), thus acting as the three wheels of a tricycle), however it is also noted that he was given this name, as to further establish his ladies man persona, as it was well known that he was fond of three-way sex. Popov was a worthy predecessor to the fictional spy James Bond. He stayed at the best hotels, ate at top restaurants, visited smart casinos, and was a bon vivant. And in fact, Ian Fleming met Popov, and then based his James Bond novels on the spy character that was Dusko Popov

Popov died in 1981 aged 69, leaving behind a widow and three sons.

Duško Popov published his memoirs "Spy, Counterspy" in 1974.

"The hussar concept began in Serbia, near the end of the 14th century. In the 16th century, painted wings or winged claws began to appear on cavalry shields. Wings were originally attached to the saddle and later to the back. In 1645, Col. Szczodrowski was said to have used ostrich wings.
In 1500, the Polish Treasury books make reference to hussars. Early on, they were foreign mercenaries, and were called Racowie from "Rascia" a word meaning "of Serbia." They came from the Serbian state of Ras."

"Les serbes avaient reconnu la nécessité d'une cavalerie légère, (...) ils développèrent leur propre cavalerie légère, les GUSARS ou USARS, d'où sont venus les hussards."

"Originaires de Serbie, les hussards furent des cavaliers d'élite, connus surtout en Hongrie puis en France, et imités par la suite partout en Europe."

"The area around the present Zorinsk (Ukrainia) belonged to the Serb Hussar Major Vuyich at the end of the 18th century."

" Arsenije III (...) was inaugurating new Serb infantry and hussar regiments that were sent to the ongoing war."
