## Resource

This week Aaron gives us the incredible true story of the English hoodlum that became a pivotal double agent during the Second World War! Eddie Chapman made his way to prison through burglary and safe cracking before falling into German hands in Jersey. What followed would win him the German Iron Cross and the grudging admiration of his British military handlers!
