Reckoning that the wartime alliance of the U.S. and Soviets would soon crum ble, he greeted the victorious invading Americans with a proposal: his secrets in return for U.S. financial backing. The U.S. accepted and installed Gehlen and his wartime staff in a heavily guarded compound near Munich that had formerly served as headquarters of Deputy Führer Rudolf Hess. There, behind double rows of concrete walls and steel fences, Gehlen plotted some...
