OK there is a wail link but its based on a Times story.
Jock Lewes, who along with his fellow officer David Stirling was instrumental in creating the new unit in 1941 that would change the face of the Second World War, had just three years earlier been “dazzled” by the Third Reich.
Lewes had been engaged to the German society beauty Senta Adriano
Lewes, a former captain of Oxford University Boat Club and a society figure in prewar Britain, had fallen in love with a Nazi Party member and on his frequent trips had become increasingly smitten with national socialism.
