Abstract
I met Alex George in Bad Homburg, Germany, in November or December of 1945, when he arrived from Paris at the Information Control Division, Office of Military Government (United States). (I had come to ICD a few months before, from London.) These were still the early days of the occupation of Germany after World War II, and everywhere there was destruction and chaos as four of the victorious powers—Britain, France, the Soviet Union, and the United States—each set about organizing its own zone of occupation.
