23. Secrets of the Cold War from 1947 to 1990 with Aden Magee
from SPYCRAFT 101 · host Justin Black
Today, hear from author and counterintelligence professional Aden Magee. Aden discusses how Cold War espionage began in a relatively friendly manner and evolved into the high stakes stories we know today. Initial "liaison tours" served as methods of intelligence collection as tensions rose between the USSR and the other Allied powers. As boundaries on restricted areas were drawn, tours became more and more dangerous with the risk of Soviet or East German detention, vehicle ramming, and shooting of MLM officers who strayed too close to restricted lines.Connect with Aden:LinkedIn: Aden MageeCheck out Aden's book, The Cold War Wilderness of Mirrors, here.https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B09672Q27C/ref=dbs_a_def_rwt_bibl_vppi_i1Connect with Spycraft 101:IG: @spycraft101Patreon: Spycraft 101Buy the book: here on AmazonSupport the show Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
