Re: German spies parachuted into Britain

Hi guys

I've been Googling and have found two interesting early spies:

Willem ter Braak (Dutch) parachuted into England on night of 2/3 November 1940; eventually committed suicide 29 March 1941.

Leniham (Irish) parachuted in to Ireland, near Dublin, in July 1941, but handed himself in to Northern Ireland authorities.

Clint, KG200 not formed until later in the war, so not responsible for early incidents.

PS: Were there any recorded flights by, say, He115s or other seaplanes to land spies in UK?

Cheers
Brian
