@ColonelZ I know it’s a different letter but couldn’t help myself…
The Z Organization
The intelligence network Siegmund Warburg worked for during the war – the Z Organization – was led by a Lieutenant General named Sir Claude Edward Marjoribanks Dansey, (1876-1947) also known as “Colonel Z”, “Haywood”, “Uncle Claude” and the code name “Z”. He was the Deputy Director of the secret intelligence service known as ACSS, from the British intelligence agency commonly called MI6, and a member of the London Controlling Section. He began his career in the intelligence service collective in 1900 and remained active until his death.
Did know about Colonel Z, I do have a long line of English, Irish and Scottish descendants, some of the oldest families in the US some came over on the Mayflower! Not related to Colonel Z but to a few of the other kingly ancestries.
Now Percy’s search for Z is another story.
Percy Harrison Fawcett DSO (18 August 1867 – during or after 1925) was a British geographer, artillery officer, cartographer, archaeologist, and explorer of South America. Fawcett disappeared in 1925 (along with his eldest son, Jack, and one of Jack’s friends, Raleigh Rimell) during an expedition to find “Z”—his name for an ancient lost city which he and others believed existed in the jungles of Brazil.[1]
I felt pretty sure you took that moniker for such a reason.
Re: Fawcett & crew, Lord only knows.
