Trivial Trivia - taking trivia to new levels

My father had top-secret clearance with the OSS (way down on the totem pole), but I learned more details about Camp X under the three fine gentlemen who wrote Come Retribution, and especially from the one who went on to write the sequel, April '65. All three of those authors had training in military and government intelligence. One later worked with the CIA and another with NSA. I also learned from them that the Confederate Secret Service structure became the impetus for the French Underground during WWII.

I learned about Aspidistra in college when we were discussing Tokyo Rose.
