Julius Silber - German Spy, WW1

The German spy who was never caught | Julius Silber (WW1) > .

Two months after the German Julius Silber arrived in Great-Britain in 1914, he applied for a job at the Ministry of War and, against expectation, was accepted at the censor’s office. For four years he was able to gather intelligence about the manufacturing and invention of new weapons, military plans, microfilms and political developments, mailing all of them to his superiors in Berlin. And what is more, he was never caught… and returning home proved to be the biggest battle.
