Скачать или смотреть A German Soldier Found A Pack Of American Cigarettes... And Realized They Weren't Meant For Him

In the freezing winter of 1945, a German soldier made a baffling discovery: a pack of American Lucky Strike cigarettes... inside a sealed Nazi Reichspost mailbag. He thought it was stolen goods. He was wrong.
He had just uncovered Operation Cornflakes, one of the most brilliant and bizarre psychological operations of World War II.
This is the incredible true story of how the OSS (the precursor to the CIA) turned Hitler's own postal service into its unwilling delivery system. As the Third Reich crumbled, American spies in Rome devised a plan that was pure genius:
► The Attack: Allied fighters would first bomb and strafe German mail trains, creating chaos. ► The Trick: A specially modified B-17 bomber would then fly over the wreckage and drop its own payload: dozens of perfectly forged Nazi mailbags. ► The Weapon: Inside these bags wasn't normal mail. It was "black propaganda"—fake letters from soldiers detailing imaginary defeats, miniature newspapers (Das Neue Deutschland) exposing Nazi corruption, and, of course, packs of American cigarettes.
German cleanup crews, believing they were salvaging Reich property, would dutifully gather these bags and place them right back into the German postal system.
The enemy's mailman was now delivering the Allied message.
Join us as we follow the journey of this "poison mail" as it infiltrates the Reich, from the hands of the unsuspecting soldier Hans to the desk of a General's wife in Vienna. This wasn't just about spreading lies; it was about planting the corrosive seeds of doubt. And the Lucky Strike cigarette? It was the final, brilliant clue that proved the fortress had already been breached.
This is the story of history's greatest Trojan Horse, a tale of espionage, deception, and the psychological warfare that helped unravel an empire from within.
