Hitler’s South African Spies – Part 3

We’ve covered the Radleys, Rooseboom, and the Felix network—but in this final episode, the focus flips.

What did the South African and British services actually know about these Nazi spy efforts? And more importantly—how did they respond?

Evert Kleynhans takes us inside the counterintelligence war: the Royal Navy’s Y service, MI5, and the South African Postmaster General all played a role in intercepting transmissions, triangulating hidden radios, and watching the Ossewabrandwag from the inside. They were reading the messages. They had the direction-finding gear. And they still couldn’t shut it down.

We get into why—factionalism, political hesitation, and sabotage from within. And we follow the trail beyond the war, all the way to the abandoned treason cases, buried archives, and the intelligence files that were meant to be erased.

The spy rings may have fizzled, but the fallout never really ended.
