The Special Operations Executive was to set Europe ablaze and resist the Nazis by supporting resistance movements in occupied Europe and providing guerilla warfare .

The rudimentary section D was soon supplanted by SOE ordered by Winston Churchill. MI(R) or D gave lttile thought to helping civilians fight the Nazis. There was also much interdepartmental rivalry.

The SOE started in 1940 was headquartered in London with branches in Cairo and Delhi with a link to the US. Under Dr Dalton ,the SOE initially set its sights too high and because Dalton was not part of the War cabinet, he was not given greater access to Churchill. This was an intially a hit and miss operation which soon set more realistic targets.

Other key concepts and facts about this heroic group are as follows:

• How to communicate with resistance movements. Radio could be intercepted.



• Communication with Polish and Czech movements were on a small scale.



• What Churchill ordered was unprecedented and there was no blueprint to study.



• Convincing the military hierarchy that they were worth supporting.



• News travelled slow-



• Sabotage difficult to verify



• The military often regarded SOE as "distraction" from needed fighting.



• The SOE faced three major problems in Europe as outlined below.



• Getting agents on the ground in occupied Europe that were properly trained.



• Parachute drops by Whitley and Wellington bombers were hazardous as the planes were easy targets.



• The perfect plane was found,the Lysander, difficult to see.



• Mid 41-agents were beginning to land with all manner of problems



• Reception committees were very much at risk breaking curfew.



• The special danger of informants was ever present.



• With experience came sophistication.



• "Special people" picked up by the Lysander had to be debriefed in London.



• Clandestine radio communications a special "suitcase wireless set was devised.



• Qualified radio operators and those with skills in Explosives were trained and dropped into occupied Europe.Fitting in with backgrounds and cover stories were devised in case of capture. The slightest mistake carried the most sever of punishments.



• SOE operatives provided allied intelligence and became part of WWII heroic tradition.



• On the subject of heroes, note these names: Captain Henry Rees, Violette Szabo, Pearl Witherington and Wing- Commander Yeo Thomas.Captain Harry ReesViolette SzaboWing Commader Yeo-ThomasNoor Inayat KhanPearl WitheringtonThe Lysander I hope to do bio portraits on some if not all of these names.

The Special Operations Executive was ordered by Winston
Churchill to "set Europe ablaze". The Special Operations Executive's (SOE)
main task was to link up with resistance movements
- primarily the French
Resistance - to undermine the Germans in the countries they had
occupied.
In 1940, after the fall of
France, Britain had a rudimentary approach to assisting civilian resistance
movements in Europe. Section D existed as part of the Secret Service. Its task
was to support subversive movements in occupied countries. MI (R) also existed.
It was part of the War Office and its job was to support irregular operations
conducted by personnel in uniform. However, little thought had been given to
helping those civilians who not only wanted to fight back at the Germans, but
also wanted to help out the British. Both Section D and MI (R) proved relatively
ineffective in supporting the resistance
movements in western Europe - too much inter-departmental rivalry was an
issue. Therefore, a new start was required, an organisation that was free from
rivalry and that had a fresh outlook on how to support the resistance movements
of Europe. This led to the creation of the Special Operations Executive in July 1940. Its
headquarters was in London and it had regional headquarters in Cairo and Delhi.
A link with America was also formed.
SOE was placed under Dr Dalton who
headed the Ministry of Economic Warfare. Dalton was not a member of the War
Cabinet which would have given him greater access to Churchill and initially,
due to its lack of experience, SOE set its sights too high. One SOE plan, sent
to the Chiefs-of-Staff, requested equipment for Europe's resistance movements
that would have taken six months alone to transport by air.
Dalton and SOE
soon set themselves more realistic targets. The most obvious one was how to
communicate with the resistance
movements of Europe. Any form of radio communication was open to
interception. There was communication with Polish and Czech
movements but only on a small scale. Probably, the biggest problem SOE
experienced, was that there was no blue print to study. What Churchill
had ordered had never been done before - there was no rule book to go by. Dalton
and SOE had to make up the rules from the beginning. One further disadvantage
SOE had was convincing those in the military hierarchy that what they planned to
do was worth supporting. Acts of sabotage were difficult to verify - especially
their success. Communication was invariably slow - so good news took time to
arrive. There were many in the military who saw the SOE as a distraction from
the 'proper' fighting that had to be done.
SOE faced three major
problems in Europe:
1) Confirming that worthwhile
resistance movements existed
2) How to maintain contact
with these movements once contact had been made
3) How to
help these movements actually fight against the Germans
The only way that SOE
could overcome these three problems was to get agents on the ground in occupied
Europe. This provided SOE with its next problem - suitable candidates to be SOE
agents. Once trained, the most common way of getting agents to mainland Europe
was by plane. Parachute drops could be made by Whitley and Wellington bombers.
However, these were obvious targets from the ground. SOE needed a smaller plane
that was difficult to see but tough enough to land on crude runways. In the Lysander it got the
perfect plane.
By mid-1941, SOE agents were beginning to land in
Europe. All manner of problems were experienced - contacting the 'reception
committee', informing them that a drop was going to take place, poor weather at
the last minute which might stop a flight etc. The so-called reception
committees were very much at risk. By simply being out at night they were
breaking curfew regulations imposed by the Germans and informants were a danger
that put everybody at risk.
The work of the SOE became more
sophisticated as they became more experienced. The ability of the Lysander to land,
allowed SOE to pick-up 'special people' who needed to be de-briefed in
London.
One of the most vital SOE tools was clandestine radio communications.
A special wireless set weighing less than 40 lbs was developed. It looked like
an ordinary suitcase. The plan was for every SOE organiser to take to occupied
Europe a qualified radio operator. Every SOE operative was trained in
parachuting, unarmed combat and self-defence. Those who had particular skills in
explosives, trained to perfect these skills. The same was true with wireless
operators. SOE schools were set up under the greatest of secrecy to train
potential SOE operators. The final part of training for any SOE person was his
or her so-called 'cover story'. Each SOE operative had to fit in with his/her
background. The slightest mistake would have been punished in the most severe
manner. Therefore, no 'Frenchman' would wear shoes made in Great Britain or
smoke British made cigarettes.
Some SOE operatives not only provided Allied
intelligence with vital information, they also became part of World War
Two history - the likes of Captain Henry
Rees, Violette
Szabo, Pearl
Witherington and Wing-
Commander Yeo Thomas.

Mother Mary Ascended Masters

http://www.lifeoflight.com/Channelling/MaryIndex/maryindex.html

I have read this as a message from Mother Mary with the following underscored points

• she is an ascended master of great love.wisdom and compassion



• the forces of nature coming in unity and not destruction as was once thought



• your requirements are unique and not compared with that of others



• she intercedes in healing and protects women and children



• they are coming to rise, these natural forces, to widen our perceptions and enable our growth



• the physical has not been processed in our perceptions. It is an advanced sort of perception of the glorification of the works of G-d to promote our healing and growth



• these have always been present but now we are in a position to apprehend them and appreciate the movements of energy we were not sensitive to formerly



• The physical destabilisation of the natural realm is not because it is beyond repair or condemned to dissolution but it is to give humanity and earth breath between creations cycles



• The physical vibration is also changing and is attuning with our recalibrated spiritual and physical perceptions



• To dissolve the physical would create unnecessary disruption



• Those who apprehend ascending viewscapes in a valid flow: these Mother Mary supports



• These replace that which is no longer of service



• The work is at many levels and many directions of ascension.
  

Mother Mary Mother Mary,
who volunteered before her birth to bring Jesus to the world. Also called
"Mother of the World." A beautiful, powerful ascended master of great love,
wisdom and compassion. She protects women and children and intercedes in
healing. One of her past incarnations was Isis, when she instructed initiates in
the Mystery

LADY MARY & ASCENDED MASTERS
Feel the unity with your chosen vibration of expansion, your chosen space of expansion. Understand that your requirements are unique and that they are not in any way better or worse, higher or lower. They do not respond to that which is comparison nor that which is the truth of another and all your requests are nurtured in equanimity and unconditionality.
I am Mary and I come with those who are Ascended Master and those in Earth management, for the elements of Earth that have been known as the Forces of Nature are coming to rise and they are rising in unity, not in destruction which was once thought. They are coming to rise, to enable the risen relationship between humanity and Earth, between individual and Earth. Although the physical manifestations of this movement have not yet been processed in your perceptions, they are fully grounded within your realm. It is your viewscape which is at present changing to embrace them. Do not be astonished by what you realate, what you see, what you perceive within your reality. It has always been present. It is simply that now you are in a position to appreciate these movements of energy.
There is increasing destabilisation within the realm that is known as physicality, not because it is beyond repair or condemned to dissolvement but it is to give Earth and Humanity breath between creations cycles, between the recalibration of your own appreciations, your own accepted abilities and the melding of these with that which still remains. En mass, the physical vibration is also changing. However, to interrupt the physical continuity is not desirable for the physical nature is still held fully within your viewscape. Therefore to dissolve this would create unnecessary disruption. We support those who develop their viewscape in accordance with that which is ascending, that which is higher vibration such that their vision may replace in a valid flow, valid within the minds and perceptions of the Humanity, replace that which is no longer of service. That which is no longer of service is becoming more evident to the conglomerations of the humanity. Therefore the work is at many levels and in many directions; it is coming to pass, mark our words, and there are many who are ascending in vibration in many areas at many levels of your humanity. And all are uniting as do you this night, morning, day for there is no interruption, there is no scale, no linearity to this connectedness. There is the fortitude of intention which bridges all gaps, all tendencies, all conditioning to that which is parameter, to that which is measurement.

I have learned much from reading the paragraphs below especially on the sacred songs ICAROS and Meghan's ability to do VENTIADAS. These are healing activities carried on for generations and I am now first reading about them, which demonstrates my ignorance even now. Meghan is speaking of another kind of medicine than the plant medicine in the paragraph below. Further posts are forthcoming

http://ayahuascameghan.blogspot.com/2009/03/ayahuasca-sanago-quadriplegia.html

In recent months, the apprenticeship has naturally shifted over from my own
personal work, to extending work to others. I am getting Icaros (the sacred
songs which call in energies and manage the ceremonies), able to do ventiadas
(healing work which clears out dark energies that are up for people) as well as
distance healing work. It´s coming along nicely! I won´t lie, it´s hard as hell
sometimes, and constantly transcending the obvious to see the bigger picture can
be very tricky. But I love it...I feel like I´m really living! Not just watching
movies about living, but being in the thick of it all the time: the good, the
bad and the ugly (of course it´s all beautiful and perfect if you can see
straight!) The medicine is training me to do healing work (without the use of
the actual plant medicine) so I will be prepared to do my five month stint in
the US. It´s a crazy world out here, but it´s so much more than I could have
ever dreamed with my tiny little mind:) And I am almost finished with the ´what
I´ve learned from the medicine´book, but now I am in the middle of writing my
whole story! Stay tuned...

Hospitals as safe havens preventing social chaos in emergencies

Hospitals as safe havens should and must be politically neutral . They have the major function to contain the outbreaks of epidemics and communicable diseases as a result (inevitably so) of environmental catastrophes which engender great health threats . I can but say that Katrina was mishandled and the result was a great loss of public confidence right across the board with FEMA and public agencies . Do they have the technology on hand to analyze data to prevent such outbreaks. I believe there is an effort underway to refine and overhaul health systems technology which is more than overdue and the current administration, so I've read is at least planning in that direction. I read of the WHO and it is a noble "jab" at this problem of handling public emergencies.

http://mousemedicine.blogspot.com/2009/04/lives-in-balance.html

http://www.who.int/world-health-day/2009/keep_health_facilities_safe/en/index.html

Health facilities are safe havens for people during an emergency. Hospitals
and their staff must be regarded by all parties – particularly combatants during
conflicts – as neutral and must not be subjected to any form of violence. Sadly,
the provisions of international humanitarian law in this regard are often not
respected. During emergencies, health facilities play a vital role. They:
provide emergency care to the injured (e.g. surgery and blood transfusions)
and to the critically ill – as in outbreaks of communicable disease;
collect
and analyse data on illness and deaths in order to detect and prevent potential
communicable disease outbreaks;
deliver longer-term health care before and
after an emergency. People need long-term nursing and medical care, maternal and
child health services, rehabilitation of injuries, management of chronic
diseases, and psychosocial support long after the emergency is over;
provide
immunization services to prevent outbreaks of communicable diseases such as
measles that lead to the needless deaths of more children; and
provide other
critical services – including laboratories, blood banks, ambulances,
rehabilitation facilities, aged care facilities, and pharmacies.

2. Protect investment
The most costly health facility is the one that
fails. Hospitals and health facilities are enormous investments for any country
and their destruction or damage imposes major economic burdens. In some
countries, up to 80% of the health budget is spent on hospitals and other health
facilities. Rebuilding a hospital that has been destroyed virtually doubles the
initial cost of the facility.

Hospitals are a haven for the public during conflicts and other emergencies
due to their neutrality, impartiality and ability to protect a community's
social and health capital.
Disasters are also politically important and
their handling affects public confidence. Perceived inadequacies in the
emergency response to Hurricane Katrina in New Orleans, USA, in 2005 reduced
public confidence in government when the country witnessed 44 dead bodies being
recovered from a hospital that had been flooded, damaged and abandoned. At least
140 elderly patients of hospitals and nursing homes died in the wake of the
hurricane

Sanat Kumara ancient of days Master Saint Germain father of ancient America

Ascension chamber of the Masters ?

Note the under referenced paragraph that the Masters all these years worked in the background.Sanat Kumara as the ancient of days is mentioned as being approached by "the Son of Man" by the prophet Daniel called "Lord of the World". Sanat Kumara and St Germain's missions were cosmic and note their underpinnings below. I am not familiar with the allusion to Mighty Victory.

The Ascended Masters have worked with mankind throughout the centuries.
Most of the time in the past the Ascended Masters have worked in the background.
There were some Ascended Masters who have assisted mankind such as Sanat Kumara.
also known in the Bible as the "Ancient of Days", by some He is known as the
"Lord of the World".
Sanat Kumara came ages ago to give assistance to the
Earth when it would have been dissolved otherwise. He offered His own free will
to supply the Light required to sustain the Earth and keep the Earth in the
system until enough so mankind could be raised to a point where they could carry
the responsibility of emitting sufficient Light.
Ascended Master Saint
Germain's Cosmic Name is "Freedom". He is the Cosmic Father of the people of
America. Saint Germain's work for the freedom of mankind began in that
civilization seventy thousand years ago; when a whole civilization could have
been raised into the Ascension had they continued to give obedience instead of
becoming rebellious.
Saint Germain's most recent work with mankind came
forth in the 1930's. He worked with Mr. & Mrs. Ballard to establish the
focus on the "I AM" Presence. Through the Ballards, Saint Germain and other
Ascended Masters gave dictation's. Some of the other Ascended Masters where,
Great Divine Director, Mighty Victory, Mighty Victory and Ascended Master Jesus.
