Nonetheless, he writes, those working on Operation Foxley were “surely aware” of the book and the film. The plan itself - a lone sniper in the woods staking out the Berghof and waiting for Hitler to begin his daily walk - bore a remarkable similarity to the popular 1939 British novel “Rogue Male,” which itself received the Hollywood treatment two years later in the film “Man Hunt.” However, while the author of the book Geoffrey Household worked for SOE, Lee found no evidence that he worked on, or was aware of, the assassination planning. The plan bore a remarkable similarity to the popular 1939 British novel ‘Rogue Male’ It also contained a section euphemistically titled “possibilities of action in the Berchtesgaden area.” The dossier contains a welter of photographs, drawings and intelligence about Hitler’s routine when he was staying at his Berghof vacation home, security precautions and staffing, as well as the topography of the local area and layout of buildings at the Obersalzburg mountain complex. “It was a complete non-issue for them.” The lone gunmanĪs the Operation Foxley dossier released by the British government (and reproduced in an appendix to Lee’s book) shows, while many proposals were considered, the most likely was the infiltration of a sniper into the woods around Hitler’s Alpine retreat close to Berchtesgaden in Germany’s far southeast. After the "death" of Big Boss, Sniper Wolf was later recruited into FOXHOUND, to get her revenge on the world.“It never came up in their conversations,” says Lee. Wolf then became a lone sniper, so she could watch and wait, and see war from the outside rather than from the inside. Wolf eventually came to look up to Big Boss, whom she called "Saladin." Big Boss brought the young Sniper Wolf to the United States. Wolf eventually met Big Boss, who saw great potential and talent within her. Sniper Wolf would later be trained by Gurkhas who taught her all they knew about sniping.
The international community did nothing to help her or stop the fighting, which made her hate the political world.ĭuring the 1988 Al-Anfal Campaign in the Iran-Iraq War, Sniper Wolf witnessed the gassing of her friends and family at the hands of Iraqi soldiers. When she would wake up from sleep, she would often find one of her friends or family dead beside her, and prayed that she would make it through each day. She was constantly being hunted and always had to move from one shelter to another on a regular basis hiding from the regime. Sniper Wolf was from the south of Kurdistan (also known as Iraqi Kurdistan) she was born and raised in the middle of a violent guerrilla conflict between Kurdish freedom fighters and the Iraqi regime of Saddam Hussein, surrounded by gunfire, sirens, and screams.
