Arnold M. Silver was a senior CIA operations officer. A Boston native, he died of multiple myeloma on December 16, 1993 in the age of 74 at his home in Luxembourg City. During his years of service he worked in Austria, Luxembourg, Germany, Turkey and the US. == Biography == Silver graduated at Tufts University and received a master's degree in German philology from Harvard University in 1942. During the second world war he participated in the Normandy landings and later became a prisoner-of-war interrogator (IPW), first in the IPW team of the 66th Infantry Division. In September 1945 he joined the IPW team in Oberursel, near Frankfurt-am-Main, at the 7707th European Intelligence Center, also referred to as Camp King. "Oberursel", as the camp was most frequently called, became the Army's center for detailed interrogation of former Nazi military personnel, émigré personalities and potential Sovjet informants. Many of the Paperclip scientists were recruited there and it was Silver's task to interrogate pesons such as Otto Skorzeny, Walter Schellenberg and Richard Kauder (alias Klatt). After Skorzeny was acquitted of war crimes by a military court in Dachau in 1946, he was sent to Oberursel until a decision would be made what to do with him. After several interrogations by Silver, it was decided that he resettled to Spain: About his time at Oberursel, Silver writes: In 1948, he retired from the Army as a technical sergeant and joined the CIA, founded one year before. Silver became CIA Chief of Station in Luxembourg from 1957-1960. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Arnold M. Silver」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
