'Double Cross' spy Arthur Owens remembered 70 years on

Help

This year marks the 70th anniversary of the World War II anti-espionage operation Double Cross.

The first double agent was a Welsh spy codenamed Snow. His real name was Arthur Owens, an electrical engineer from Pontardawe.

It was down to Owens and a network of 120 double agents to supply the Nazis with false information.
