Product Information
The only first-hand account of BRIXMIS, the British Army's most secret unit of the Cold War. BRIXMIS (British Commander-in-Chief's Mission to the Group Soviet Forces of Occupation in Germany) is one of the most covert elite units of the British Army. They were dropped in behind 'enemy lines' ten months after the Second World War had ended and continued with their intelligence-gathering missions until fall of the Berlin Wall in November 1989. During this period Berlin was a hotbed of spying between East and West. BRIXMIS was established as a trusted channel of communication between the Red Army and the British Army on the Rhine. However, they acted behind the shadows to steal advanced Soviet equipment and penetrate top-secret training areas. Here Steve Gibson offers a new understanding of the complex British role in the Cold War. AUTHOR: Steve Gibson was educated at Lancing College and Birmingham University. Commissioned into the Royal Engineers in 1983 he was selected for special duties training and posted to a unit in West Berlin, operating exclusively in East Germany between 1988 and 1990. A number of staff and military intelligence appointments followed before Steve left the Army in 1993, with the rank of Major and an MBE awarded as a direct result of his work in East Germany. 80 b/w illustrationsProduct Identifiers

Brixmis - the West's little-known surveillance unit.
Brixmis and it's Soviet counter-part Soxmis were a continuous and compelling part of the long Cold-war period - although little known outside military and diplomatic circles. This book shows both their importance but also the occasionally amateurish and amusing side.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Berlin during the Cold War, a compelling account of British covert activities
This is a well-written, exciting account of the "behind the lines" Cold War activities of a group of special men and women, Liaison Officers chosen for their abilities to work covertly. Whilst under observation themselves they manage mostly to shake off their pursuers to photograph and sometimes steal pieces of the latest East-Bloc technologyVerified purchase: YesCondition: New
