User:Cap4075/Ralph C. Hollingworth

Ralph Cooper Hollingworth (1912-1972), was a British commander captain who lived in Denmark for a period. From 1940-45 he was head of the Danish section of SOE. He recruited agents for training and later deployment to Denmark and managed their operations in the country in collaboration with the Danish army's intelligence service and later also with the Freedom Council. Hollingworth largely involved Danes in leading positions in the section's work in London. However, Denmark was low on SOE's priority list for a long time, which hampered his work.
