As a native French speaker he was quickly assigned to SOE and the OSS (the precursor of the CIA) and parachuted into occupied France in the lead up to D-Day. After the liberation of Paris he was sent to Indochina to organise and train tribes in the jungles of the Far East to fight the Japanese. Subsequently he worked for the CIA in Washington.Told with characteristic understatement and charm, Jean Claude’s writing perfectly captures the variety of his own long and fascinating life. Much more than one man’s memoirs, Dead on Time is a tribute to a unique generation whose lives were regularly filled with both danger and laughter.
