Morris "Moe" Berg

Morris Berg was nicknamed Moe. He was an American baseball player who later became a spy, working for the United States’ OSS during World War II.

Even before World War II, Moe Berg secretly gathered information for the United States. He learned to read and speak Japanese as he prepared for an exhibition baseball game in Japan. One of the greatest baseball players of all time, Babe Ruth, went with him.

Maps Hidden in Playing Cards

Soldiers who were captured by the enemy and held in prisoner-of-war camps were allowed to receive mail from their families.

Sometimes their mail was ordinary. Other times, letters, playing cards, board games, and music sent to them had been secretly altered to help the soldiers escape.

Josephine Baker

Josephine Baker was an American living in France. She was a popular entertainer who danced for the Folies Bergère. Her act was very popular in Paris.

In September 1939, France declared war on Germany after Germany invaded Poland. The Deuxième Bureau was an intelligence branch of the French military. It recruited Josephine Baker to become a secret agent.
