During World War II, the Allies recognized that conventional warfare was insufficient to defeat the Nazi regime. They needed secret agents to gather intelligence, organize resistance, and cause chaos in enemy territory. Britain, with limited experience in clandestine warfare, collaborated with the US and Canada to train spies in sabotage, subversion, and guerrilla warfare. The joint plan led to the establishment of Camp X, a top-secret spy school in Canada, overseen by British experts. The school became the model for America's espionage training, with a manual teaching recruits the skills needed to be a spy. North American spies were sent worldwide to take on enemies, playing a crucial role in the Allies' victory.
