    The story of Denis Avey is incredible. I would be interested in reading more about him if he decides to write a detailed book about experiences.

    "...infiltrated the camp dressed as a Jewish prisoner to gather intelligence from a British Jewish naval doctor interned there."

    I think he did not realize that he was 100% close to losing his life by getting into the camp...

    Thanx for sharing the article!

    Glad to know that his story has finally been heard! Thanks for posting, and Jon, thanks for the link to Richard's BBC article on Mr. Avery - I don't know how I missed in back in November.
