Walter Kopp was Lieutenant Colonel of the Wehrmacht under the Third Reich. After the Nazi defeat in 1945, he became the chief of one stay-behind networks in West Germany, code-named Kibitz-15. The British and US intelligence services had set up clandestine anti-communist organisations supposed to "stay-behind" in case of a Soviet invasion. Walter Kopp was described by his own North-American handlers as an "unreconstructed Nazi," in CIA documents released in June 2006.

Had joys no date, nor age no need,
Then these delights my mind might move
To live with thee and be thy Love.”
