Begoum, F. M. "Observations on the Double Agent." Studies in Intelligence 6, no. 1 (Winter 1962): 57-72.

"The service and officer considering a double agent possibility must weigh net national advantage thoughtfully, never forgetting that a double agent is, in effect, a condoned channel of communication with the enemy."

Given the "design and development lead-times" required for satellites, "by the time the military determines intelligence requirements to support its new doctrine [Joint Vision 2010], it may be too late to influence decisions about the very intelligence support systems upon which the doctrine depends."

Behrendt, Hans-Otto. Rommel's Intelligence in the Desert Campaign, 1941-1943. London: Kimber, 1985.

Sexton refers to this work as a "[l]avishly illustrated memoir of the role of intelligence in Rommel's operations." Behrendt describes "the organization, activities and personalities of Radio Intercept Company 621 and gives examples of the information gleaned from intercepts of British and American communications."

According to Hunt, I&NS 2.2, the author served as intelligence officer to Rommel from April 1941 to May 1943. He has produced "a modest and enlightening account of his sevice which is as good an exposition of the practical side of intelligence work in the field as any I know from either side."

"President Eisenhower said [on 11 May 1960] that the Soviet Union's ability to prepare in secret a massive surprise attack was ample warrant for the United States' 'distasteful but vital' espionage activities. In a carefully worded statement read at his news conference the President said that the Soviet 'fetish of secrecy and concealment' was 'a major cause of international tension and uneasiness.' It was the President's first public comment on the downing of an American U-2 reconnaissance plane over Soviet territory and official Soviet indignation over the incident."
