Charles Richard Taylor
British Army Special Operations Executive
My father was posted to a unit in 1942 at Beaulieu. On his records are just the units intials STS. I'm trying to find out what this means and what this unit did, and his part in it. On his records there is just a box with a big C for the years 42 to 45. I was hoping someone might have a clue what this unit was.
Editor's Note: The highly secretive Special Operations Executive was based at Beaulieu STS. The country estate was used for training spies before they were deployed behind enemy lines. Their work was top secret hence the C (classified) on your father's records.
