But sure "that Dude" had no clue ;)
EDIT:
Ahh sorry it's another book..i have to search it, it's a pretty long story and nearly unbelievable but the wikipedia article give a hint about it.
- jernspett 5y agoThere is nothing about the Whiskey on the Rocks incident in your linked Blind Mans Bluff, so please elaborate. Good book, though.

EDIT: Yes i found it: The Secret War Against Sweden: US and British Submarine Deception in the 1980s (Cass Series: Naval Policy and History) https://www.amazon.de/-/en/Ola-Tunander/dp/0714682756/ref=sr_1_23?crid=3T1TUR2GLK3JN&keywords=submarine&qid=1644172824&s=books&sprefix=submarin%2Cstripbooks%2C61&sr=1-23 https://www.amazon.de/-/en/Ola-Tunander/dp/0714682756/ref=sr...
