THE GREEN KING (part 61)

The Photographer
from Salzburg
Arazi and the
four sergeants had established a plan discreetly to use the material resources
and the various supplies and provisions of His Majesty’s forces. Arazi had also
set up a communication system, running from Antwerp to Naples, through Paris,
Marseilles, and Athens. A broadcasting station had been installed in a town
about nineteen miles outside Milan; it maintained contact with the leaders of
the Haganah in Tel Aviv.
In this
partially occupied country, Arazi had trucks, men who spoke perfect English, noncommissioned
officers in correct uniforms. He actually created a fictitious military unit,
with false regimental rolls and real quarters: been officially requisitioned by
the British Army. He completed all this with a workshop of forgers in charge of
drafting orders that could fool the Military Police, and also false papers for
refugees who were in transit.
Thus was formed
the 412th. And the stratagem was discovered by the British only in
April 1946.
On August 21,
1945, a group of thirty-five illegal emigrants embarked in Bari on a
twenty-five-ton fishing boat, the Dalin – in reality, the Sirius, whose true
port of call was Monopoli, twenty-six miles farther south on the Adriatic
coast.
After seven
days at sea, without the slightest incident, the first postwar clandestine boat
arrived at Caesarea. Reb Klimrod and Yoel Bainish were aboard.
