    My goodness! A memorial PLAGUE?! That seems an odd way to commemorate the anniversary of a successful intelligence professional, even in Russian terms.

    I lived in Clara Street for a while, and went to the same primary school as Rudolph Abel

    Does anyone ever check these things for accuracy, apparently not.

      I though you knew the mantra, never let facts get in the way of the story.

    Pity the blue box with subtitles obscures the photos.

    Thanks for the video it was interesting.

    "Most notable" depiction of the "Hollow Nickle Case" was in the (fairly recent) Spielberg film? Clearly, you've never heard of The FBI Story (starring Jimmy Stewart), based on a book of the same name by Don Whitehead.

    Locust plague? Black plague? That's a weird way to commemorate... :D

    Would have been helpful if you'd explained what "the infamous Operation Scherhorn" was.

      Gil-Yes, it would be nice if these guys would explain things at least a little bit when they throw them out. I did look it up on Wikipedia and it was pretty interesting against the Nazi's! If you are interested, it is on Wikipedia.

      Instead of using a nickel I assumed he switched to a shoehorn to hide the microdot :)

    Haynenen should have hightailed it for parts unknown in the US when he got the call to return to Moscow. He could have melted into the American Northwest-the Dakotas and Minnesota and Upper Michigan are full of Finns and he could have slid right in. It was stupid of him to even leave the country.

    0:23 "... with a rich 'ray-suh-me' " ... You had better check your pronunciation on this one. Anyone pronouncing "résumé" in this way probably isn't old enough yet to have one.😋😛😂

      He was also "taken down the ship to Europe by FBI agents" - the whole thing is cheaply produced crp and may be an auto reader reading from bad text. .. Lot of it about these days.
      I have a feeling I heard that the split nickel story was false and created to fool the FBI on the source of information that found out Fisher - Hayennen.

    I hope that the narration is AI-generated because the pronunciation of German and Russian names/terms is TERRIBLE.

    Nice to discover the AI can read. Now you just have to teach it to read 'resume' amongst other things. Like Finish ... So boring to listen to.

    Это же искусство. Хотя, в основе правда. И эти и другие очень уважаемые люди учавствовали. А уж каким образом, кто скажет. Никто никому из определённых кругов не докладывал.
    Не всё так, но сделано с большим вниманием к известной личности во многих странах, а с 2015 года и в целом в мире.

    You would think that someone would have put a documentary out about this longer than 10 minutes long.. the movie is a movie not a documentary with the real people..
