[email protected] [email protected] www.genshoah.org Generations of the Shoah International Newsletter May, 2016 Dear Members and Friends, GSI mourns the passing of Frederick Mayer, the German-Jewish refugee-turned-spy. Mayer was the last surviving member of OSS Operation Greenup, one of the most successful American espionage operations during World War II. Impersonating a German officer in Austria, Mayer was able to gain critical information on the movement of 26 trains en route to the Italian front via the Brenner Pass. The Allies were able to destroy that entire transport and for this Eisenhower credited Mayer with shortening the war by six months. However, the Germans realized there was a spy and Mayer got picked up by the Gestapo. Despite being tortured he never disclosed the location of his team. While a prisoner, Mayer convinced the Gaulieter (leader) of Innsbruck to surrender and crossed battle lines to bring those terms to the Allies. No civilian lives were lost. For this Mayer was awarded the Order of the Tyrolean Eagle which honors people who are of particular political, economic or cultural importance for the Tyrolean state. For more on Fred Mayer, see the articles and video in the FYI section below. We have a list of Yom Hashoah V’Hagvurah commemorative events below.
