Simple Sabotage Field Manual

United States Office of Strategic Services

During World War II, the United States Office of Strategic Services (OSS) was established for special operations, intelligence gathering, and analysis. Among its many missions was the training of foreign forces in tactics of propaganda, espionage, subversion, and sabotage. Following the war, the functions of the OSS were absorbed by the newly formed Central Intelligence Agency (CIA). This compelling Simple Sabotage Field Manual was designed to equip OSS agents with the tools to train citizen-saboteurs in executing subtle acts of sabotage aimed at disrupting industries and essential services in Axis-occupied territories.
